East Grinstead Comedy Club – September
With Dominic Holland, Harriet Dyer, James Trickey and hosted by Thanyia Moore!
Headlining the show is the brilliant Dominic Holland! With countless television and radio credits, including multiple appearances on Have I Got New For You and The Royal Variety Performance, as well as The News Quiz, Dominic has written and performed four BBC Radio 4 series including the The Small World of Dominic Holland which won a Comic Heritage Award. Perrier Best Newcomer and Award Nominee, Dominic has performed seven solo shows at the Edinburgh Festival, most recently in 2018 and he continues to tour the UK and beyond with his unique take on life. Described by The Sunday Times as ‘the UK’s master of observational comedy‘ and by The Daily Telegraph as ‘a top notch stand-up who everyone should see.’
Despite Dominic’s best efforts and his considerable achievements in show business, the cruel reality is that he has been severely out-starred by his eldest son, Tom. Tom Holland is better known as Peter Parker and even better known as Marvel’s Spider-Man. Dominic accounts for his son’s meteoric and ‘overnight’ success as a fluke in his hilarious book, Eclipsed which is available in hard and digital formats. Dominic has written for The Guardian, The Daily Mail, Mail-on-Sunday, The Independent, The Sun, Daily Mirror and a raft of trade journals.
Opening the show is Harriet Dyer! As seen on Live At The Apollo, Rosie Jones’ Disability Comedy Extravaganza, Comedy Central Live & The Russell Howard Hour.
Harriet’s other tv credits include Jokes Only Neurodivergent People Can Tell on Channel 4 and Movie Megastars: Made In The 80s on Sky Max, as well as Elephant In The Room, The Fringe Comedy Showcase, The 13 Million Club, and The Good, The Bad & The Unexpected, all on BBC Radio. Harriet was a main writer for both seasons of Jon Richardson’s Channel Hopping on Channel 4, and she wrote for and starred in Meet the Richardsons on Dave.
In 2024, Harriet won The Channel 4 Sean Lock Comedy Award and she won the Neurodiverse Review’s Neurodivergent Representation Award at the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe.
Harriet has been a full time comic since 2013. She’s had numerous critically acclaimed shows, works for the majority of big clubs and festivals, regularly gigs overseas, and prides herself in being totally original – an experience to behold, if you will!
