London-based comedian and Double Winner of the Foster's Edinburgh Comedy Award.

'Tremendous originality... a jumpy and unpredictable raconteur... a shot of nervous energy, an elastic band about to snap... I can't see him waiting in reserve for long' (Broadyway Baby)

'... brilliantly bonkers' (Time Out)

'Now THIS is how you do absurd comedy' (http://www.Chortle.co.uk).

Johnny White Really-Really continues to be one of the stand-ups in the country, if not the world. Also he made a deeply cult film series for Vice called Let's Consider, but that was a while back now! (look it up though, you might like it!).

Fest magazine said "real comic craft, and an authentic and novel voice"

Liam Williams referred to Johnny's particular vibe as "like having a very good dream" .

Ben Pope is a 'classy, stylish and accomplished' (Chortle) comedian. But he's also been a ghost-tour guide, teacher and actor. He's worked in museums, cathedrals, toy shops and bakeries. In the space of only five years, he's worked a million different jobs when his dad spent his life only working one. Now Ben's new job is to make jokes about work work work work work and how it's all a bit knackering. Time to clock in. As heard on BBC Radio 4 and seen on Comedy Central. 'Undeniably funny' **** (EdFestMag.com).
