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.

She's tooooo funny and the crowd seems to gel well with her sense of humor which made her even funnier.

Venue was rubbish, the music was playing so loud upstairs you could not hear the gig very well! They either need to keep the volume down or don’t bother with it as a venue! Charlie was very good, and very interesting watching his work in progress. Such a shame I was the only audience member! And that is not a reflection in Charlie, probably just the venue!

She cancelled only 90 mins. before show time, when I would have assumed that she'd be en route to "sunny" Hastings. A disappointing let-down.
