Hastings Comedy Festival fan favourite Russell Hicks returns for a festive special. The American UK-based comic is known for his razor-sharp improvisation and has appeared on Channel 4, ITV, BBC and Prime Video (including Lovestruck High), as well as in Edgar Wright’s The Running Man. Expect a high-energy Christmas night full of quick wit, crowd work and the unpredictable style that’s made him a local favourite.

Brilliant as always. Mark is a national treasure and it was wonderful to see him in St Leonards. The Piper provides an intimate space, perfect for comedy.

Loved the show. Didn't understand why conjuring was in the narrative, although it worked! Great first WIP
