**BEC HILL: WORK-IN-PROGRESS**
Australian-born and now London-based, Bec has gained a cult following in Australia, the UK and Ireland thanks to her acclaimed solo shows and popular YouTube videos, which have garnered over 200,000 views. She has a talent for incorporating arts and crafts into her stand-up routines; creating a unique and unforgettable comedy style that she calls “paper-puppetry”. She is currently the co-host of Sky’s *“DC Fancast”* and *“DC Fancast UNMASKED”*, can be found on several seasons of CBBC’s* “The Dog Ate My Homework”*, and performed her 2015 solo show, *“Caught On Tape,”* in Royal Albert Hall’s Elgar Room.

**STUART GOLDSMITH: THIS IS ACTUALLY MY SIXTH RODEO**
Goldsmith swaggers back with all the confidence of a man who has not only helped produce a new baby, but has also managed to write a show that isn’t entirely about the daft little sod.
Well not entirely.
Expect all the usual shaggy-dogs, monkeyshines and frogging about, but this time delivered with a very slightly desperate “this has to work” sheen.
