Founded by Darrel Martin ten years ago, JTT has established
itself as one of the Countries best, funniest and most prestigious comedy
nights. Attracting such acts as Johnny
Vegas, Dylan
Moran and Ross Noble
to its other
home at Cabaret in Nottingham. Where else could you see arena filling acts in a
three hundred capacity room?
So what can you expect at the Leicester
branch of JTT? The organisers claim to have the best Friday
night out in town, and looking at the lineup they may very well be
right! The event will be taking place at The Music Café, above The Jam Jar,
on Braunstone Gate, a 250 capacity, fully seated venue. As well as the usual
drinks available, there will be "Lip Smackin'" food on offer until late and
doubles + mixers at £2.50 and selected bottles of Lager at £1.50. (Great comedy
AND cheap drinks, so far so good).
Doors open at 8.30, show starts t 9.30. DJ's thereafter until
2am.
Admission is £8 and £7 NUS &NHS concession.
So to the main part of the evening…. the acts...
Friday 7th May
NOEL
JAMES
Noel James is daft. A very original and
often copied headliner, this man's surreal tangents make him a must for every
dinner party. Totally hilarious, totally unique.
A HEADLINE SUPPORT ACT
All will be revealed. High quality
laughter, Contractual reasons say 'do not advertise'. Exciting?
MATT
HOLLINS
Winner of Leicester Mercury Comedian Of The
Year. Come see why..

Friday 14th May
TONY BURGESS
Skulking scally manc. Comedy fans will have seen him
in Johnny Vegas' recent DVD - he was the loony flatmate. One of the
best joke writers in the business. The Manchester legend comes to town.
JIM
JEFFRIES
Filth was never such fun. Australian cheeky boy, very spot
on routines and amazing gags. Shocking, funny and alarming.
What a hoot
COMPERE - MARK
OLIVER
Bristol's finest is starting
to spill up towards the Midlands. Graceful compering from a clumsy looking man.
PLUS A NEW
TALENT SPOT.
Friday 21th May
CRAIG CAMPBELL
Down from the hills came humour and it rode on the back of
Campbell.
Canadian madman, had own TV series
there... left it all behind to lighten Blighties life. A very distinguished act.
EARL OKIN
Musical genius and sex god. Musical wit
of an unequaled style. Smoothly disarming. Gentle but amazing mirth. Bloody
brilliant.
