Comedy night at The Bertie Arms

Following on from 2 hugely successful opening night, we return for another night of laughter and another superb lineup. Opening the show is yet another TV regular, in the shape of Canadian comic Glenn Wool. Glenn Wool began his comedy career in his hometown of Vancouver in 1995. He moved to London in 1998 and quickly became one of the rising stars of the London and international comedy circuit having performed in Australia, New Zealand, The USA, South Africa, Switzerland, France, Croatia and Arabia. Glenn was nominated for Best International Stand Up at The New Zealand Comedy Awards and Best Headliner at the Chortle Awards In recent years Glenn has hit the International circuit in a big way, performing to huge crowds in Singapore, Holland, Dubai, New York and Los Angeles where he is currently living. He's also a popular addition to many of the great Summer music Festivals in the UK, including Reading & Leeds, Latitude, Bestival, Download and of course Glastonbury. Glen Wool is a true Comedy Star & a great stand up Comedian not to be missed. If you are lucky enough to see him perform live, strap yourself in, enjoy the ride & be prepared to go on a great Comedy Journey. Support is then provided by rising stars Syed Ahmad Raza and Kate Robb, then its the turn of your headlinerRicky Balshaw. A quick-witted, slow walking, fast rising star, Ricky Balshaw is without question, the funniest Paralympic Dressage medallist in the UK, perhaps the world. Stepping over his cerebral palsy like its the mildest of inconveniences, Ricky pulls his audience into a joyfully dark world of self-depreciating hilarity. No sympathy vote is needed (or accepted) as Ricky dominates comedy stages up and down the UK. A brilliant joke-smith and storyteller, this young man has comedy greatness in his bones. MC for the night, Doug Carter is a multi-award winning stand-up comedian who has over 100,000 online followers, not bad for a man whose face is very easy to scroll past (his words not ours!) His storytelling observational style is popular with all different types of audience as he gigs around the UK pro comedy circuit.
