GOOD SHIP COMEDY IS RETURNING TO EAST LONDON TO BRING SOME OF THE FINEST HEADLINERS IN THE LAND TO LEYTONSTONE!
DESIREE BURCH - THE GOLDEN WRATH
Authentic, curious, and gleefully irascible, storyteller and comedian Desiree Burch leads a madcap voyage through the Middle Ages – AKA the mid-life crisis, and its mandatory metamorphosis – in her new standup hour. Desiree brings both childlike wonder and crone-like wit to the experiences of losing sleep, relevance, knee cartilage, oestrogen, youth, and illusions in a laugh-packed hour that celebrates the fury and freedom found when you’ve accepted that time has ruined your plans, but roll up your sleeves to fight it anyway.
Desiree Burch is an American comedian who has appeared across the UK’s biggest comedy shows, including Taskmaster, The Mash Report, Live At The Apollo, Travelman, The Last Leg, QI, and more. She’s also the wisecracking narrator of Netflix’s iconic guilty pleasure Too Hot to Handle.
“Near-perfect example of comedic storytelling” The Evening Standard
“Desiree Burch is such a funny, frank, eloquent, entertaining and perceptive raconteur… positively poetic.” The Scotsman
“A larger than life New Yorker… who brought the roof down.” The Independent
ROSIE JONES - I CAN'T TELL WHAT SHE'S SAYING
From writing for Netflix’s Sex Education, to standout moments on Taskmaster UK, a BAFTA nomination for her show Trip Hazard, and her bold appearances across primetime dramas, Rosie shatters comedy boundaries – and she's about to prove exactly why. Rosie is a force of nature on stage and screen, turning disability, difference and daily chaos into pure comedy genius. Whether she's discussing life, love or the ridiculous, Rosie creates a show that's simultaneously hilarious, honest and heart-stoppingly bold.
Get ready for a night of comedy that will make you laugh, think and absolutely never look away.
