Line Up :

Ben Norris 
The term circuit legend is overused, but Norris rarely departs a stage without leaving it torn to shreds in his wake.
A master of the craft, Norris may not be a household name, but then very few really good comedians are these days.
Ben's TV credits include "Never Mind The Buzzcocks", "They Think It's All Over" and "Mock The Week".
"A cast iron guaranteed headliner" - Londonisfunny.com "A wonderful disgrace of a human being" - Daniel Kitson.

Ben Norris is a highly experienced and hugely well respected stand-up and a regular headliner on the UK comedy circuit and has performed around the world in Prague, New Zealand, Australia, Hong Kong, South Africa, Dubai m Singapore, Manilla, Bangkok, Tokyo , Isle of Wight & now New Cross!

Jess Fuchs
Bold, fast-talking Aussie Jess Fuchs mixes razor-sharp crowd work with wildly relatable stories, observations and chaotic life anecdotes. Regular at The Comedy Store Sydney and has opened for international acts like Fortune Feimster, Gianmarco Soresi  and Morgan Jay.

Peter Francis
In 2001 Peter Francis embarked on a journey, He had a god given gift for making people laugh and he knew from within he was destined to become a comic/comedian actor. Peter has performed all over the world from Hollywood (USA) in venues such The Laugh Factory, The Improv, The Comedy Store and other mainstream and alternative comedy clubs, has toured Europe and now comes to New Cross

Reviews for previous Sion James events

Stefan H reviewed Clapham Comedy Club @ Bread & Roses SW4 : Carl Donnelly : The Dead Dad Show ( Work in Progress / Edfringe Preview) which happened on 2:30pm on Sun 23rd Jul 2023.

Great gig. Loved seeing Carl Donnelly. My only feedback would be the seating was pretty cramped, particularly given the attendance. But I understand this is pretty standard in theatres and venues
