Stand up Comedy with headliners Andy Askins & Steve Bugeja at The Attic, Southampton Friday 11th December
Andy Askins at The Attic
Andy Askins has built a reputation as a distinctive and original performer, as well as a masterful joke writer. He has a rare ability to disarm an audience the moment he steps on stage. You never quite know what’s coming next — it could be a story, a one-liner, a song, or even a poem. He has a knack for turning the simplest setup into something unexpectedly funny, and watching him at work is always a joy.
Sep 2025 saw him celebrating 20 years as a full-time comedian and Andy is recognised as one of the most distinctive performers on the UK and international comedy circuit. A highly sought-after headliner, he’s known for expertly crafted routines and an eclectic mix of offbeat comic songs and parodies. With a wickedly dry sense of humour and a modest, self-deprecating style that leaves audiences in the palm of his hand.
From entertaining soldiers in Saddam Hussein’s Palace in Iraq to playing a sold-out Royal Albert Hall in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust Andy has delighted in every corner of the globe.
Steve Bugeja stand-up comedian comes to Southampton
Steve Bugeja is one of comedy’s most exciting talents, blending sharp writing with standout performances. In 2024, Steve hits the road with his 25-date tour Self Doubt (I Think), supports Iain Stirling on tour, and joins the writing team for Love Island US’s sixth series.
Co-creator, co-writer, and star of ITV2’s sitcom Buffering, Steve has also hosted BBC Radio 4’s Economics with Subtitles and appeared on The Russell Howard Hour (Sky One), Love Island: Aftersun (ITV2), and Russell Howard’s Stand Up Central (Comedy Central).
As head writer for Iain Stirling’s CelebAbility (ITV2) and a key contributor to The Russell Howard Hour, Steve’s credits also include Mock the Week (BBC2) and 8 Out of 10 Cats (Channel 4). Internationally, he’s twice performed at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, appearing on Comedy Allstars Supershow and Comedy Up Late (ABC1).
A true all-rounder, Steve is a comedian, writer, and performer in high demand.
Plus Hampshire comedian of the year 2025 Zak Lacey
Extraordinarily handsome, the body of an Adonis, drives a Ferrari.
These are phrases never used in relation to Zak Lacey. Instead, Zak relies on his sharp observational humour and dry wit to charm audiences. From the quirks of modern life to his own misadventures, Zak’s comedy turns the mundane into the memorable.
New to the circuit but hungry for more, Zak is focused on honing his craft and making his mark on the UK comedy scene.
