Coastal Comedy presents

Coastal Comedy February 2025

Sat 8 Feb 2025

Our resident and multi award winning Comedy Club, Coastal Comedy offers the very best in stand-up talent every month in our beautifully intimate Sherling Studio.

The Coastal Comedy Show with Ben Norris

As seen on: Mock The Week (BBC2) and They Think It’s All Over (BBC1) and many more!

Come and enjoy a top night of live stand-up comedy with 3 hilarious acts plus host, up close and personal in our beautifully intimate studio at the Lighthouse, brought to you by our resident and multi-award winning Coastal Comedy Club.

Our headline act is the incredibly funny Ben Norris who has appeared on a range TV shows including: Mock the Week (BBC2) and They Think It’s All Over (BBC1) and is a regular at the world famous Comedy Store.  Ben has developed an incredibly relaxed stage persona with an innate ability to improvise as well as deliver sharply crafted material.

“The term circuit legend is overused, but Norris is one of a handful that have been headlining for more than two decades and rarely departs a stage without leaving it torn to shreds in his wake. A master of the craft, this will be the most polished stand-up you are likely to see.” GQ Magazine

“A cast iron guaranteed headliner”– London is funny

“Killer gags”- The Scotsman

“A master of the craft, this will be the most polished stand-up you are likely to see.” GQ Magazine

Opening the show is the hilarious Mike Cox, winner of the prestigious Fosters South Coast Comedian of the Year Award and many more. Mike’s sharp wit and everyday cynicism have made him one to watch on the comedy circuit in recent years.

“Like an Everyman, if that Everyman had delicious cynicism and razor sharp wit.” Romesh Ranganathan.

Plus, John Newton, with ‘Good old fashioned, solid gags’, who began his comedy career in 2003, fast became known for his inventive writing, covering a massive spectrum of subjects from the surreal to the hard hitting, yet still managing to remember that “the gag” comes first. In that respect, he’s an old fashioned gag teller/writer and proud of it.

Don’t miss this top night out, sponsored by United Taxis. The night is hosted by Adrienne Coles from award winning Coastal Comedy–see you there!

Please note that acts may change due to TV Commitments.

Doors open 7.15pm and show starts at 8pm.
