About

Matt Bragg
Matt Bragg is a master of low-energy, meticulously crafted observational comedy—think Jack Dee's deadpan polish with Frank Skinner's friendly swagger. Named runner-up Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year 2020, he's toured with Ricky Gervais, Harry Hill, Suzi Ruffell, and Jason Manford, and previewed his debut hour Matt Bragg Has Nothing Wrong With Him across the UK.
"Great stuff, excellent gags!" – Harry Hill
"Classic observational comedy, delivered with effortless style." – Ricky Gervais

Susan Murray
Susan Murray is a razor-sharp comic, actor and writer with fearless energy and bags of charisma. She's appeared in ITV's Love, Lies & Lipstick, starred in the West End and Edinburgh smash Arthur Smith Sings Leonard Cohen, and performed on BBC Radio 4's The Now Show.
"Her ability to make quirky connections allows her to build a compelling believable and richly funny picture of 21st century womanhood..Anyone who loves the work of Sarah Millican and Kerry Godliman will find plenty to enjoy here" – The Guardian

Paul Sinha
Paul Sinha (aka "The Sinnerman") is a quiz legend turned powerhouse comedian. A former GP, he's one of the six iconic Chasers on The Chase, winner of multiple BBC Radio 4 awards (including the Rose d'Or), and a standout stand-up on the Edinburgh Fringe circuit. Diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2019, he's turned his battle into brave, witty, musical comedy—right now he's headlining Pauly Bengali at Fringe and beyond.
"The writing was tight, rhythmic… laughs kept coming." – Metro
"A sparkling hour… formidable memory skills worn so lightly." – Broadway Baby ★★★★★

Colin Owens [compere]
Colin Owens is the charming chaos at the heart of Stand Up in the Basement. He's been gigging across the UK comedy circuit since 2005, known for his dry delivery, laid-back style, and razor-sharp crowd work. Colin's the glue that holds the night together setting the tone, warming up the room, and making sure no one gets too comfy in the front row.
