Johnny Vegas headlines a top-class night of comedy in Nottingham�s city centre. Now a national treasure, TV and film star, Johnny made his name doing stand-up in the late 90s.
Since winning the acclaimed Festival Critics' Award at the 1997 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and being nominated for the prestigious Perrier Award (now Dave�s Edinburgh Comedy Awards) � a feat never before achieved by a newcomer � Johnny has created a sensation wherever he has played, performing triumphantly to packed houses all over the country, and indeed the world. Johnny's unique abilities as a live performer are the stuff of legend, with his ability to mix quick fire audience interaction with heart-wrenching pathos and Butlins-style singalongs.
Johnny is also known for contributing his unique brand of humor as a permanent team member on Shooting Stars, his acclaimed performance as Charlie alongside Paul Whitehouse in BBC2�s comedy-drama Happiness, and of course, is currently starring alongside his old pal monkey in the current PG Tips adverts!
Kelly Convey is a fast-rising comedy star. Starting in stand-up in 2016, she was a finalist in the prestigious comedy competition in the UK So You Think You�re Funny. Kelly performs regularly alongside household names like Romesh Ranganathan and Rob Beckett and tour-supported for Russell Kane & Alan Carr in 2019.
�In-your-face and reassuringly confident� She�s a sassy, convivial figure� Plus she knows how to turn a phrase�� Chortle
Scott Bennett has rapidly established himself as one of the fastest rising stars on the UK circuit. Likeable, with a warm and engaging delivery, he is a Yorkshire live wire with an undeniable no nonsense logic.
�Observational comedy with everyman appeal, stretches every premise to find the laughs, pleasingly executed tales� Chortle
Compered by Darrell Martin. Founder and organiser of Nottingham�s comedy club Just the Tonic, he has compered shows in Edinburgh, supported Rich Hall, Ed Byrne and Johnny Vegas on national tours for over 20 years. �In this age of touchy-feely confessional comedy' it�s nice to see a comedian that�s not afraid to be heartless� The Scotsman
Johnny Vegas is also hosting nights at Just the Tonic clubs in Reading (29 February), Birmingham (6 March), Camden (21 March) and more to be confirmed soon.
Darrell Martin�s critically acclaimed Just the Tonic began in Nottingham over 25 years ago and has become known as one of the most respected comedy venues in the country, playing host to countless up-and-coming comics as well as the most established names throughout the UK. Just the Tonic is now one of the leading comedy venues in Birmingham, Camden, Leamington Spa, Leicester, Nottingham, Reading, Watford, as well as leading iconic venues at Leicester Comedy Festival and the mighty Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
