Welcome to The Hedgehog Comedy Club!

Big laughs, brilliant value! Saturday night stand-up comedy in Bristol.

Your Opener: Chelsea Birkby

Known for combining smart with silly, Chelsea is a fixture at the UK's top comedy clubs and has taken multiple critically acclaimed shows to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. She’s often sighted on ‘Jokes of the Fringe’ lists, has appeared on RHLSTP, and written for Mock The Week.

“Charm by the bucketload. Birkby has a delightful onstage manner.” (The Telegraph)

Tour support for Russell Howard, Celya AB, and Sarah Keyworth.

Your Closer: Huge Davies

With a confident presence, dark humour, and a one-of-a-kind customised keyboard, Huge has become one of the UK’s most unique acts. After sell-out runs at the Edinburgh Fringe and Soho Theatre, Huge appears on-screen often, including in The Artists, his Channel 4 sitcom.

“Had me shaking with laughter” ★★★★ (The Telegraph)

As seen on 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown, Roast Battle, and The Stand Up Sketch Show.

Your Host: Burt Williamson

A Bristol-based comedian, improviser and comedy producer. A familiar face at the Edinburgh Fringe, Burt combines quick crowd work, sharply written punchlines and enthusiastic sarcasm with an effortlessly likeable stage presence. Silly, smart and brilliantly unpredictable, he’ll be keeping the night moving and the laughs coming from start to finish.
