JOHN TOTHILL: THIS MUST BE HEAVEN (WORK-IN-PROGRESS)
In 2024, John Tothill’s appendix burst onstage, just days after Trump was almost assassinated. Both men claimed that these near-death experiences changed them. Both were lying.
Join John Tothill as he attempts to monetise what body parts he has left in this brand new work-in-progress from the world’s most profound comedian.

RORY MARSHALL: PATHETIC LITTLE CHARACTERS (WORK-IN-PROGRESS)
Rory Marshall has dug deep into his extremely sad and pathetic soul to create an hour of extremely sad and pathetic characters. He adamantly claims that they’re nothing like him at all, but you can be the judge of that.
A work in progress show from South East Dartmoor’s fifth-most promising character comedian.
As seen on Starstruck, Ellie & Natasia, Channel 4 and heard on Radio 4.
‘Rory Marshall is my absolute favourite’ Lolly Adefope
‘Genuinely one of roughly five character comedians to come from South East Dartmoor’ Rory Marshall
