Join us for an evening of live stand-up comedy featuring a line-up of some of the UK’s funniest rising stars.
Produced by the Hastings Comedy Festival Team.
Kazeem Jamal (host)
Hailing from the streets of South East London, Kazeem Jamal is a powerhouse of high-energy, charisma, and razor-sharp humour. Ready to make his mark, he’s a true breath of fresh air for the UK comedy scene. A natural raconteur, this high-flier is heading in one direction only, and that’s up.
An already in-demand compere and opening act, Kazeem burst onto the London comedy scene in 2019 with the confidence and stage presence of performers who have been in the business for decades. Fresh, funny, and effortlessly engaging, he wins over audiences of all ages.
Rachel Fairburn
Live at the Apollo star and co-host and co-writer of the worldwide smash-hit podcast All Killa No Filla, Rachel Fairburn has built a dedicated international following of over a quarter of a million listeners. She has taken the podcast on several sell-out UK tours and a recent tour of the USA.
Rachel has also featured in Chortle’s One to Watch list in 2020, won the Online Content Award from Joe.co.uk, and been a finalist in several prestigious competitions, including Funny Women, City Life Comedian of the Year, the NATYS, and English Comedian of the Year.
A staple of the Edinburgh Fringe since 2014, Rachel has performed five critically acclaimed solo shows and was featured in the Daily Telegraph’s “40 Jokes of the Fringe.” A regular on the UK stand-up circuit, she is also the curator and host of the wildly popular ‘Comedian’s Stories’ night at 2Northdown comedy club in London.
Thor Stenhaug
One of the UK’s most exciting new comedians, Norwegian-born Thor Stenhaug has quickly made a name for himself on the UK comedy circuit, earning a shortlist spot for British Comedian of the Year.
In a short period, Thor has built a large online following, headlined top comedy clubs across the country, and supported big names including Fern Brady, Josh Widdicombe, Larry Dean, and Jack Dee. His sharp, worldly-wise humour and clever storytelling make him a must-see headliner.
A night for everyone!
The evening’s line-up serves up something for everyone, from Kazeem’s dynamic hosting and quick-fire improv, to Rachel’s confident storytelling, and Thor’s sharp, worldly-wise comedy.
