One of the UK’s most esteemed comedy clubs is coming to Guildford’s Casino Nightclub on the last Saturday of every month, starting on Saturday 28 March. Boasting the finest names on the circuit, from top stars such as Ed Byrne to Adam Bloom, Guildford will never be without its funny bone again.

Ed Byrne, Mock the Week star Gary Delany and Live At The Apollo’s Hal Cruttenden kick the comedy season off on the 28th, while Adam Bloom and Paul Sinha are confirmed for Saturday 25th April, with more names to be announced as the months pass by – please check www.justthetonic.com for details.

Darrell Martin’s critically acclaimed Just the Tonic began in Nottingham over twenty years ago and has become known as one of the most respected comedy venues to date, playing host to countless up and coming comics as well as the most established names throughout the UK. 

With past performers including the likes of Ricky Gervais, Matt Lucas, Al Murray, Bill Bailey, Stewart Lee, Mark Thomas, Simon Pegg, Noel Fielding and Dylan Moran, and with Ross Noble, Daniel Kitson and Johnny Vegas all being regular comperes at the club, there is no wonder that Just the Tonic is expanding once again.

Casino’s general manager Zac Mucha said: “This is great news for Guildford. We are looking forward to working with Darrell and his Just the Tonic team and add comedy nights to our repertoire of events, securing our position as the town’s premier late night entertainment venue.”

Purchase your tickets here for only £16 pounds, or £13 for students:  http://www.justthetonic.com/guildford-comedy/
