Good Ship Comedy Presents... Fern Brady

  • 692 High Road Leytonstone High Road Leytonstone London, England, E11 3AA United Kingdom (map)

As seen on Live from the BBC, Live from the Comedy Store, Live at the Apollo and smashing it out of the park on Taskmaster, Fern is one of the UK’s hottest comedy stars. Known for being totally unique and completely fearless, her material tackles sexuality, feminism, power, Brexit, Britishness, Scottishness and nationality all with her caustic wit, exceptional writing and electric stage craft. 

"Appealingly acidic… a great comic sensibility with moments of sparkling verve." The Guardian

"An astounding hour." The List 

"Tough-talking and packed with don’t-give-a-shit honesty. It finds the right balance between sincerity and side-splitting anecdotes... I was crying with laughter." The Skinny

MICHAEL ODEWALE

An exceptionally smart young man with something to say, Michael Odewale’s stand up covers everything from politics to pigeons. He began performing in 2014 whilst at university and was a finalist in both the Chortle Student Comedy Award and the BBC New Comedy Award.

A fresh and unfiltered voice known for delivering sharp, slick and beautifully executed content, Odewale is taking the comedy world by storm. His debut show #BlackBearsMatter won Best Show at both the 2019 Leicester and Hastings Comedy Festivals and achieved critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Fringe 2019, earning him a nomination for Best Newcomer in the Dave Edinburgh Comedy Awards.

Most recently he has been seen on The Mash Report, Chris Ramsey’s Stand Up Central and The Stand Up Sketch Show, as well as his own mini-sketch show Comedians in Quarantine on Comedy Central.

“An engagingly sardonic wit.” Chortle

MATT STELLINGWERF

A relative newcomer to the UK, Matt is a slacker comic who remembered to pay attention at school, a super-cool tatooed rocker with a nerdy streak running all the way through him.  Most importantly, he's originally and superbly funny.

"An intellectual ‘Fonze’...extremely laid back and relaxed with the audience, seamlessly having banter and keeping his cool." Keeping Up With NZ

AND YOUR RESIDENT HOST:

BEN VAN DER VELDE

One of the quickest wits around and a much-loved compere, he always brings a jam-packed back of nonsense, silliness and wisecracks to every gig he hosts.

"Wonderfully improvised riffs showcasing his impressive spontaneity and sharp tongue." Edinburgh Festivals Magazine

“The perfect comedy club host – he is a master of audience interaction. The audience weren’t just warmed up, but pretty hysterical even before the first act of the night hit the stage.”  Huffington Post
