Nick Mohammed

Emmy-nominated Taskmaster loser Nick Mohammed returns to the road as his alter ego, Mr Swallow on the brand new Show Pony tour. Describing it as "payback for everyone who didn't come to the last tour", Nick promises a night of magic, music and more as he discusses all the important things, such as the highs and lows of trying to get his own sitcom, critical race theory and everything in between.

Rhod Gilbert at New Theatre Oxford

Rhod Gilbert

Hailed as one of the UK's leading stand up talents, Welsh funnyman Rhod Gilbert answered his comedy calling in 2002, deciding to give up his job as a market researcher and take a stand-up comedy course. That same year he made the finals at the Edinburgh Fringe's So You Think You're Funny competition and a whirlwind of newcomer awards followed. In 2005 he won the Chortle Award for Best Breakthrough Act and released his first-ever show 1984 - a riotous depiction of growing up in the fictional Welsh town of Llanbobl.

Chris McCausland at New Theatre Oxford

Chris McCausland

After blowing us all away on Strictly, comedian Chris McCausland is returning to his day job on a brand new tour, Yonks! A mainstay of the panel show circuit, Chris is basking in his overnight success - but the truth is, he's been doing this for Yonks! Turning to stand up after a spell as a software developer was cut short due to his deteriorating sight, Chris has been performing since 2003. Uncomplicated, hilarious, and with razor-sharp timing, the IT world's loss is certainly comedy's gain!
