Licensed bar. Saturday July 10. Doors open 7.30. Members of the Comedy Club: £8.00; Non-members: £10.00. Mandy Knight was trained at "Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art". Although a fully trained classical actress - she decided to initially work in stand up comedy (mainly because she has a deep fear of ending up in crap fringe theatre - where actors spend a lot of their time in rehearsals running around, exploring their inner child with the use of a silk scarf and a tambourine). As a stand up she has headlined all over the world as well as appearing on numerous television and radio entertainment shows including: "Live at Jongleurs" and "The Comedy Store" and ´The Little Big Woman Radio Show´. Mandy is the current ´Time Out´ Best Female Comic and was the very first female comic to compere for The Jongleurs Comedy chain. As a television actress, Mandy appeared as a main character in Jo Brand´s "Like it or Lump it" series. She has also appeared with David Baddiel in his last series "The Baddiel Syndrome". Her other television credits include presenting various shows including "Live Time" (A sort of Richard and Judy type show - where she held fascinating interviews with people about things like "National Cheese Week") and writing for television shows, most recently for Carlton TV´s ´Des and Mel Show´. She has used her talents as both a stand up and fine character actress to perform four one-woman shows in Edinburgh, London and Sydney.Mandy was trained at "Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art".

With musical skills that would easily fit into many rock bands Duncan Oakley performs an infectious mix of musical comedy and stand up with one of his trusty guitars - Maurice (Fender Strat), No.7 (acoustic) or his Les Paul (the Lezza) by his side. With an eye and ear for the silly, rude, playful and downright irritating occurrences of life Duncan musters up songs that not only make you laugh, they bury into the recesses of your mind and find you a humming tune with a smile on your face 3 days later, confused and wondering where it’s come from. Duncan has performed for nearly 10 years on the stand up circuit and performs regularly at some of the UK’s bigger weekend clubs as well as festivals, & Uni gigs. A talented all-round musician Duncan can also perform with harmonica, drums & piano as a one man musical whirlwind. Welcome to the world of Duncan Oakley.
