Join us for an amazing night of comedy, in “The Alley” at The Wheatsheaf Pub, Thurcaston.

Opening Act – Matt Stellingwerf Hamilton-Born and Wangnui-raised farmer’s son, trained criminologist and stand up comedian…Matt Stellingwerf is a man of contradictions.

He expertly brings these contradictions to the stage with his typical low-key style and confidence finding the humour in topics as diverse as love, politics and a crazy interview he once conducted with a serial killer in Death Row!

Highly regarded by his peers, New Zealander Matt Stellingwerf has won four NZ Comedy Guild Awards, including Best Newcomer. He is now UK based and respected nationwide by promoters and comedy venues.

A renowned MC and compere, Matt is a 3-time nominee for Best MC in New Zealand. Matt was a 2015 and 2016 nominee for the prestigious Billy T Award.

When this erudite satire-superstar gets onto the stage, the acceleration from zero to a hundred jokes is measured in seconds. Matt Stellingwerf’s deftly crafted jokes display a man full of seriously good comedic talent.

Middle Act – Henry Michael

Fast becoming one of Britain’s leading medical comedians who isn’t Adam Kay or one of the other twelve, Henry is taking his unique* brand of comedy to highly prestigious locations such as Stoke-on-Trent and Peterborough, and everywhere in-between (Leicester).

​Irreverent, insightful, and almost certainly within your price range, Henry has been described as “a comedian” by Chortle and “one to watch” by the General Medical Council. So, if there’s an inexplicable shortage of white male acts in your area, then please do get in touch; I’ll get back to you in a few days, or six months if it’s an NHS query.

He should be…  made the mayor of a small village… SHANGHAI CITY WEEKEND

He is also…  bloody funny… TIME OUT

Finally… Pierre Hollins is a hugely likeable cheeky chappie and unlikely rock god who whipped the crowd into a state of near euphoria. THE LATEST
