In 2019 he won Bath Comedy Festival’s New Comedian Of The Year and the Leicester Square Theatre New Comedian Of The Year. He has opened for award winning comedians Reginald D Hunter, Tom Wrigglesworth and regularly for Boothby Graffoe. He also starred in Tony Law and Phil Nichol’s improvised 2019 Edinburgh Fringe show.


“a comic tour de force.” (The Guardian)


“Performing comedy for year, David Eagle is a genuine stand up rookie phenomenon! Looking forward to hearing more.” (Reginald D Hunter)


“just seen the future of stand up comedy and his name is David Eagle” (Boothby Graffoe)


David is one third of three-time BBC Radio 2 folk group The Young’uns. You may have heard them performing on BBC Radio 2 and 3, or maybe seen them on BBC’s Springwatch. They’ve also done a couple of documentaries for BBC Radio 4.
They perform at venues and festivals in the UK and all over the world, including Cambridge Folk Festival and Glastonbury, where they played on stage with Billy Bragg.


Opening the night with two sections of improvised sketch comedy is ....

THE DISCOUNT COMEDY CHECKOUT


100% raw improvised sketch from Chris Lumb, Eddie French, and Phil Smith.

If you've never seen improvised comedy before, you are in for a right treat. All the games, scenarios, and situations are formed and created from your suggestions ... that's right YOU the audience.
It's very much in the style of 'Whose Line is it Anyway' but with a modern twist .... and normally a little risker and ruder too.


"The comedy is creative and crude, quick and quirky, the performers commit completely to the games and create funny & fantastic characters at a moment's notice" - ★★★★★ - Remotegoat


"There's a wonderful slapstick nature to it all but they are all impressively literate in film culture and genres too, creating brilliant, quick draw pastiches of popular cinema that will have you in stitches"- ★★★★ Manchester's Finest


"Total fun and instantly engaging" - ★★★★★ - WHODARESGRINS


Our MC for the night is the naturally funny and entertaining CHRIS LUMB.As seen on 'Russell Howard's Good News' & 'Britain's Got Talent' Chris is a popular MC on the comedy circuit with his warm and welcoming crowd work, sharp impressions, and quick fire wit.

The Waiting Room is a multi award winning vegetarian restaurant in Eaglescliffe near Yarm.

They’ve attracted regular awards and commendations over the years, being included in The Observer Food Magazine’s Best UK Restaurant category in at least five of the past ten years, and winning the Best Restaurant in the UK award from the Vegetarian Society.They have also been included in “Top 10” lists for The Telegraph, The Times, MSN and BBC Good Food. and been awarded certificates of excellence by the Slow Food Movement, Stockton Fair Trade, and visitor review sites such as Trip Advisor (and they don’t pay these sites like some restaurants do).
