Southampton Stand-Up Comedy at it's best with not 1 but 3 of the UK's comedy giants; Tadiwa Mahlunge, Raj Poojara & Steve Williams

Tadiwa Mahlunge stand up comedian 

Billed as “one of the country's top new comedy acts” by The York Press, Tadiwa Mahlunge has performed at, among others, the Latitude, Greenman, and Greenwich Comedy Festivals - alongside the biggest names in comedy - and has provided tour support for Kiri Pritchard-McLean and Jessica Fostekew, and TV warm up for Desiree Birch’s Amazon Prime special.

As seen on BBC 1, BBC 2, Dave, Comedy Central, UTV, Comic Relief and heard on BBC Radio 4, BBC Radio Wales, BBC Radio Northampton and BBC Sounds - Tadiwa Mahlunge has established himself as one of comedy’s hottest prospects. As such, he featured on the 2022 Pleasance Comedy Reserve at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

️️️️ ‘He’s got the skills, but his drive is what makes him stand out. Though their styles are different, the circuit might just have created another Jimmy Carr...’- Steve Bennett, Chortle

️️️️ ‘Young and gifted, in comedy terms, he’s already looking like the complete, fully rounded package’ - The Scotsman

Steve Williams replaces Darren Harriott at Southampton's Stand-Up Comedy Club 

Steve Williams is more topical than the news! His Welsh genes allow him to have a totally different aspect on life although he hasn’t lost any of the traditional Welsh values, and he never fails to surprise and engage audiences with his hybrid of bizarre stories, larger than life physicality, spontaneous improvisation and skewed view of everyday life.

"One of the UK’s finest comedians" - Metro

"Will leave you wanting more, the sign of a good comedian" - Comedy Central

He has supported Lee Mack on tour, appeared on Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow and was nominated for a prestigious Chortle Award. Steve is rarely in Bournemouth and, outside of his TV work and national tour, this is gold plated rare chance to see him live.

Raj Poojara at Southampton's Stand-Up Comedy Club near me

If you were to look at Raj, you’d think what most people think… where the hell is he from? Once you get to know him (and his love for saving money wherever possible), you can easily establish that he’s Indian.

Born & bred in London, Raj is the only son and youngest child. His parents had two children, you know, of which one didn’t work out…

They were proud when their only son passed his A-levels and went on to study Economics at University. They were even more proud when he graduated and became a Private Banker.

So, the obvious next step was to become a comedian…

Growing up watching some of the greats and being the “funny guy”, a.k.a “the one with the great personality”, Raj decided to take the leap of faith into the world of comedy!

His first performance at the London’s Backyard Comedy club went so well that his second gig was in front of a sold-out theatre as the opening act.

After the feeling he got coming off that stage, he knew this was the path he wanted to follow, fighting for as much stage time as possible while always working on new material.

Tickets: Early bird is £15 in advance online or £20 on the door if still available.
