The Coastal Comedy Christmas Special with Chris McCausland

About Us

As seen on: Live at the Apollo
Have I Got News for You
Would I Lie to You?...and many many more!

Get some festive funny and enjoy a fabulous night of stand-up in our beautiful venue at The Barn. Staged by award winning Coastal Comedy get to see a famous face up close and personal with 3 hilarious acts and host.

Our headliner Chris McCausland has been performing stand-up for two decades and is a regular face on British television.

He is an established favourite on such flagship comedy shows as Have I Got News for You, Would I Lie to You?, QI, The last Leg, and 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown.

He has appeared on Live at the Apollo three times, taking on the hosting duties in 2021, a year that also saw him make his highly acclaimed debut appearance on The Royal Variety Performance at The Royal Albert hall. We cannot wait to welcome him to Ringwood to headline this special show.

Although hailed as the only blind comic on the stand up circuit, Chris makes light of it. He usually begins with a crack about the irony of a blind man doing observational comedy and then speeds off into his entertaining and refreshing set, making wry and perceptive comments about the rich and famous, every day life and suchlike. Instantly likeable and definitely memorable.

Opening the show is the hilarious comedy magician Wayne the Weird with his outrageous on-stage tomfoolery! Incorporating stand-up comedy, with magic.

Also performing on the night is the hilarious Luke Honnoraty with his award-winning stand-up who burst onto the circuit in 2010 as the winner of the 'South West New Act of the Year' on his 3rd ever gig! Luke has gone from strength performing alongside the best names in comedy including Matt Richardson, Russell Kane, Katherine Ryan and Joel Dommett.

The show is hosted by local comic Adrienne Coles and is sure to be a great night out that won't break the bank.

Please note that acts may change due to TV commitments. Over 18s only.
