About Us
Coast Comedy offers a great chance to see a famous face close up and personal in an intimate setting, with the very best stand-up comics on the circuit, and are winners of the Gold Night Time Award as part of the prestigious BH Star Awards 2019.
Closing the show is the incredible John Lynn who first caught the stand-up bug after a visit to a comedy club in Dublin and quickly discovered that making a clown out of himself wasn’t all that bad. He instantly made a splash in his native Ireland with his laid-back delivery and natural stage presence and within eight months of his first gig, appeared on TV in RTE’s The Liffey Laugh; an unheard of feat for a newcomer.
He later appeared in BBC’s One Night Stand, continuing to build his reputation as a promising newcomer. Encouraged by these early achievements, John took the plunge and decided to give-up his day job as a secondary school teacher.
He is now based in London and is busy working his way up the stand-up ladder, earning his stripes at all the major comedy clubs across the UK. He misses the children who abused him each and every day of his teaching career…sometimes.
