Marina Comedy Club – November 2025

MARINA COMEDY CLUB IS BACK WITH A BANG!

 

Headlined by Lucy Beaumont!

 

Lucy is a hugely talented stand-up, comedy actress and writer. She was recently announced to be one of the contestants on the first series of the celebrity version of smash-hit show The Traitors on BBC 1. Previously, she has starred as one of the contestants on Series 16 of Taskmaster (Channel 4). Alongside this, in late 2024 she completed her most recent stand-up show to sold-out audiences across the UK, which was extended for a third leg due to audience demand. She is also known for starring in and writing five series of Meet the Richardsons (Dave).

 

Her performance in the show was nominated for Best Female Performance in a Comedy Programme in the 2023 BAFTAs, and the show won Best Comedy Programme at the Broadcast Digital Awards. Lucy created and co-wrote Hullraisers; a female led comedy series which launched on Channel 4 in Spring 2022, with a second series airing in Autumn 2023 – “Hullraisers is unapologetic. It’s laugh out loud. It’s real” (Refinery29). In 2023, she hosted Channel 4’s new Friday night panel show Odd Couples and was praised as “uproariously funny and highly relatable” by the Radio Times. In 2021 she also published a book entitled Drinking Custard: The Diary of A Confused Mum.

 

As well as a burgeoning TV career, Lucy has had success on stage and on radio. She is the writer and star of BBC Radio 4’s To Hull and Back and was nominated for the Foster’s Newcomer Award with her debut Edinburgh show, We Can Twerk It Out, for which she was described by Chortle as “irresistibly endearing”. Prior to this, she was winner of The BBC New Comedy Award and the Chortle Award for Best Newcomer.

She has appeared on numerous entertainment shows; Would I Lie To You (BBC1) counts her as a regular, and she has also appeared on Michael McIntyre’s The Wheel (BBC1), Live at the Apollo (BBC1), Have I Got News For You (BBC1), Celebrity Bake Off (C4), Ranganation (BBC), Guessable (Dave), Celebrity Gogglebox (C4), QI (BBC2), Drunk History (Comedy Central), The Jonathan Ross Show (ITV), The One Show (BBC1), Cats Does Countdown (C4), What’s Going to Kill Us (C5) and Live At The Electric (BBC Three).

 

Opening the show is Radio Essex presenter and stand-up comedian Ross McGrane! Ross is quickly climbing the comedy ranks, having beaten the infamous Gong at the Comedy Store on his first attempt and coming 2nd in the Comedy Cafe’s new act night Ross has already found himself supporting industry heavyweights such as Jo Brand, Seann Walsh, Bob Mills and Patrick Monohan and recently has been booked as official tour support for Russell Kane playing in front of audiences as big 1,600.

He’s been lucky enough to perform several times at some of the country’s most prestigious venues, sharing the stage with the likes of Jon Richardson, Ian Stone, Lee Mack & more. Ross has gigged all over the UK as well as abroad at various shows in the Middle East, compering, opening and headlining.

 

With the brilliant Will Duggan! Will has been performing comedy since 2009 and since then has cemented himself as a dynamic and interesting performer in comedy clubs around the country. He mixes stories and gags with a cheerfully cynical view of the world.

Matt Forde: Defying Calamity

In his biggest live tour to date leading political comedian Matt Forde (The Royal Variety Performance, Spitting Image, HIGNFY, British Scandal) finds positivity in life despite all the evidence to the contrary in politics and his own health.

 

‘The most topically incisive impersonator on the block… It’s laugh-a-minute stuff, underpinned by the kind of wisdom and natural resilience our leaders could learn from. He was always impressive, but he deserves his inevitable standing-ovation as never before’

★★★★★ Daily Telegraph

 “A first-class comic”     The Guardian

 ‘Flying the flag for satire… a meaty hour of impressions, gags and reflections… so much to admire here’

 ★★★★★ Mail On Sunday.

Stewart Lee vs The Man-Wulf

In this brand new show, Lee shares his stage with a tough-talking werewolf comedian from the dark forests of the subconscious who hates humanity. The Man-Wulf lays down a ferocious comedy challenge to the culturally irrelevant and physically enfeebled Lee. Can the beast inside us all be silenced with the silver bullet of Lee’s unprecedentedly critically acclaimed style of stand-up?

Stewart Lee (“The world’s greatest living stand-up comedian” The Times), is in danger of being left behind. He’s approaching sixty with debilitating health conditions, his TV profile has diminished, and his once BAFTA award-winning style of stand-up seems obsolete. But can Lee unleash his inner Man-Wulf to position himself alongside comedy legends like Dave Chappelle, Ricky Gervais and Jordan Peterson at the forefront of side-splitting stadium-stuffing sh*t-posting?

Show running time: approx. 2 hours plus interval

Age guidance: 14+

Alfie Moore: Acopalypse Now (14+)

The Four Horsemen of Rising Crime, Global Warming, AI and Culture Wars are galloping towards us.

Are we on the road to hell? And can we avoid the potholes?

In his brand new tour show ‘Fair Cop’ Alfie has the antidote to the breakdown of law and order, fake news and the price of baked beans.

He’s encountered more than his fair share of egotistical dictators in his policing career and learnt when pragmatism, and more than a dash of laughter, can defuse even the most menacing showdown.

Join Alfie as he’s saddles up to see off those bullies on their pesky ponies.

Doomsday is no laughing matter but this show certainly is.
