Stand-up comedy night with Stuart Laws headlining, supported by Alex Perkes and MC Chris Barnes at Down By Here.
Stuart Laws headlines the Rogues' Gallery Comedy Club at Down By Here on Thursday 3 December, with Alex Perkes supporting and resident MC Chris Barnes running the night. There are more acts to be announced, so it'll be a full bill rather than just a couple of sets.
Laws is one of those names that might sound familiar even if you've never seen him live. He's a comedian, actor, director and writer, and he's built a good bit of a reputation as a sketch performer who goes viral. He's supported James Acaster, Ed Gamble, Lou Sanders and Harriet Kemsley on their UK tours, and he's written for Radio 4. He's also got two specials on NextUp Comedy and two on the American label 800 Pound Gorilla, and he wrote the play The Journey, which debuted at The Pleasance at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2018. He runs his own production company, Turtle Canyon Comedy, and his work has appeared on Netflix, Amazon Prime, the BBC, Sky, ITV and Channel 4.
He's been picking up awards and reviews for a few years now. He was nominated for Best Show at the Leicester Comedy Festival in 2021 and Comedians Choice Best Show in 2022, and his 2023 Fringe show got 4.5 stars from Chortle. 2024 was a bit of a breakout year for him at the Fringe, with eleven 4-star reviews and a British Comedy Guide Recommendation, and he was featured in The Scotsman, The Guardian, the i newspaper, 5 Live and the Telegraph Best Jokes of the Fringe.
