event
on Sunday 28th April. The event starts at 20:00.
This week at The Cheese, we've overdone it again, booking a whole night of headline acts.
Bec Hill
You may know Bec from Twitter, YouTube, or from her streak of amazing and award-winning Edinburgh runs. Or you may have just caught wind from her dork-tastic fan base. She will flip-chart right into your heart and set off sillitary-grade puncussion grenades. She's much better than this flavor text, we assure you.
Her one-liners regularly feature in "best joke" lists, which isn't surprising, as she is the creator of the UK’s only pun-based comedy night, Pun Run. 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”.
“Hill is a multi-coloured ray of eternal sunshine. In a world of pain and darkness, her total lack of cynicism is refreshing.” Scotsman
“Silly, fun and a seemingly bottomless well of enjoyment, Bec Hill on stage is someone we all should aspire to be.” Broadway Baby
Stuart Goldsmith
It's nice to have one thing you can count on in this world, and for a lot of us, that thing is Stu Goldsmith kicking out an aboslutely incredible hour of standup each year. It's a joy to watch him deliver the highly refined goods, and it's equally a joy to watch him muck about and create new bits on the fly. In fact, that's how he structured his last tour: a show, then some playing around. We can expect a bit of both from him in this set, as he comes and shows us all how it's done.
"Truly a comedy masterclass... Endlessly inventive" The List
"Expert, charming stand-up" The Sunday Times
"A master of the form" The Independent

As seen on As Yet Untitled (Dave) and Russell Howard's Stand Up Central (Comedy Central)
Plus!
Ahem...
Plus!!!
(there's more?)
We also have the incredible Katie Pritchard! Katie is a musical act who demonstrates full commitment to some pretty ridiculous bits, operatic, interactive, costumed nerdiness of the highest order. She's a tornado of talent and the one that tips this bill from a damn fine one into the realm of "too much."
