Enjoy a top night of stand-up comedy in Bournemouth's favourite comedy club and finalist for the 'Best Night Out' 2017.

Here's some blurb about our Andy:
Andy Askins is a diminutive figure who exudes an air of vulnerability as he steps up to the microphone armed with a guitar and a cheeky grin. It's an overwhelmingly misleading demeanour which serves to heighten the impact of the killer lines that he delivers.

Andy has an expertly crafted routine littered with an eclectic mix of offbeat original comic songs and parodies. A talented musician with a captivating voice, popular songs have been re-written and given a perverse twist to tremendous comic effect. With a wickedly dry sense of humour, Andy's darker material is sweetened by his innocent and impish demeanour which never fails to leave audiences in the palm of his hand.

Since becoming a full-time comedian back in 2005. He has previously had the honour of working with Michael McIntyre, Lee Evans, Alan Carr, Jimmy Carr, Micky Flanagan, Harry Hill, Rhod Gilbert, Bill Bailey and Jack Dee, to name a few stand-up luminaries.

"ALTHOUGH HE LOOKS MILD-MANNERED AND STUDIOUS, HE ACTUALLY PACKS A WRY, CHEEKY WIT. THERE IS, MOST DEFINITELY, SOMETHING WARMLY ALLURING ABOUT HIM. HIS WINNING PERSONA GOES A LONG WAY." Chortle

Opening the show is Michael May who is one of the most exciting new comedians on the UK circuit. His unique take on the world and warm and open style is a hit with audiences everywhere and we look forward to giving him the Coastal Comedy welcome.

Plus James Ellis as seen on the BBC New Comedy Award 2021 and writer for BBC's "Newsjack" - he is being marked as one to watch out for.

Don't miss this hilarious triple bill and top night out, sponsored by United Taxis. The night is hosted by local comic Adrienne Coles from award winning Coastal Comedy – see you there!
