Andrew
Murrell
From being a finalist
in Hackney Empire's 1997 New Act Competition
and gaining nominations in So You Think You're
Funny, Edinburgh 1997 and BBC Newcomers Comedy
Writing Competition 1997 Andrew is now headlining
clubs around the country. He is a regular at
all eight Jongleurs Clubs, The Comedy Café,
Up The Creek, Jestesr and The Glee, to name
but a few.
His laid-back, happy-go-lucky
approach allows him to gently guide the audience
through life as he knows it. The material combines
finely tuned physical impressions with clever,
verbal twists and delightful one-liners. From
hapless victim to harmless villain, you cannot
help but like him.
"Murrell
looks flash and his material's just as sharp"
- Evening Standard, 2000
"Laid-back and dry, Murrell has some hilarious
skits and is a brilliant impersonator"
- Cape Times, 1999

Ron
Vaudry
Intelligent,
witty and sardonic, Ron Vaudry is the thinking
man's comedian. A satirical genius teetering
precariously at the edge of comedy, Vaudry guides
audiences through a series of hilarious, yet
thought provoking political and social observations.
A favorite at both the
Just For Laughs International Comedy Festival
in Montreal and The Edinburgh Comedy Festival
in Scotland, Ron has parlayed his standup success
into headlining appearances at major comedy
clubs on several continents. He is also a favorite
at campuses across North America.
"As hard-boiled
and urban as any native New Yorker." -
- The Scotsman, Edinburgh
"He has about as much vulnerability
as a porcupine on amyl nitrate. Vaudry is funny
and fun to watch." - - EYE Weekly, Toronto

Helmut
'Germany's finest comedian'
- former Metro/Evening Standard Act of the year
and C4's So You Think You're Funny finalist.
Naturlich! Inefficiency, Britain's reluctance
to join the EU, European policy gone mad are
all grist to his Germanic mill. A hilarious
act with dollops of silliness.
'A ream of clever one-liners' Scotsman
'A towering comic intellect' Metro
'A gifted comic and writer.' Edinburgh guide
'Master of the two-liner. Extremely well-written
jokes' Chortle
