After reaching the semi-finals of British Comedian of the Year and semi-finals of So You Think You’re Funny in 2021, Jacob has been named by Chortle as one to watch for 2023.

THE RAYMOND AND MR TIMPKINS REVUE

Lightning fast choreography meets uber swift editing in a fantasmagorical collision of quality entertainment. An overload of velvet, sandals and multi-hued wool provides a startling accompaniment, the whole effect being that of a slim man and a fat man putting their bums in your face. Headlining at venues from the Falklands to Ashby De La Zouch, they’ve circumnavigated the planet, spurting amusement in concentrated twenty minute bursts. If you like music and let’s face it, who doesn’t, you’ll like it. If you like silliness, middle aged men dancing and unsavoury acts, you’ll probably love it. You should try it either way. See you there. UK’s Best Comedians 2019, as voted for by the very best in the comedy business.

To make this the perfect evening of live comedy, we need an audience up for a laugh. Is that you? Come and join us and see what an award winning comedy show looks like…
