Therapy Room Comedy Club
Supported by Toni & Guy Tunbridge Wells & Moog Royale

Thursday 1st April 2010 resident Compere Stephen Upsall introduces Michael Fabbri, Philberto and Matt Reed to the Therapy Room Comedy Club at The Old School House (the Old Gracelands), Chapel Place, Tunbridge Wells, Kent.

MICHAEL FABBRI

Michael Fabbri

Michael Fabbri quickly stamped his mark on the UK circuit appearing in the 2003 final of Channel 4’s So You Think You’re Funny? and rapidly earned a reputation as one of the most promising up and coming comedians on the circuit. A reputation that he is living up to, regularly performing for the best clubs in the country.

With a dark and honest approach to some of life’s more touchy subjects Fabbri manages to effortlessly slip between some harsh, controversial topics to light-hearted silliness to make for a refreshingly eclectic and brilliantly funny act.

"'One of the best up-and-coming acts around"
Chortle UK Comedy Guide

"'exceptionally funny…extremely sharp…hugely enjoyable"
The Scotsman

"'intelligence in spades…consummate idiot savant"
The List

PHILBERTO

Philberto

Philberto bills himself as Portugal’s one and only number one reality TV star. His one man stand up show recalls his terrific rise to fame, familial struggles and dealing with his traumatic journeys in hilarious fashion.

Philberto navigates British rules and etiquette with eye-popping enthusiasm. Amongst anecdotes about his TV experience and winning the love of his father he manages to fit in some very homemade rap about the London underground to the tune of Ice Ice Baby and even some poetry, all from his Hello Kitty notebook.

"'Flashes of mad comic genius"
The Scotsman

"'Quite mad and enjoyably silly"
The List

MATT REED

Matt Reed

Born and bred in Sunderland, Matt Reed's affable style has won him fans across the UK. He effortlessly plays with the crowd with a natural rapport that is found in few comics. Matt, always ready, never disappointing will always make a good gig - great.

As pleasant as he is wonderfully brutal, Matt masterfully entertains the crowd while skilfully destroying any heckler that crosses his path.

"'fantastic and talented up and comer a future in comedy assured"
The Independent

THURSDAY 25th FEBRUARY 2010: JEFF INNOCENT, TIFFANY STEVENSON, MARTY McLEAN & STEPHEN UPSALL MC

WE HAVE MOVED VENUE

Therapy Room Comedy Club
Supported by Toni & Guy Tunbridge Wells & Moog Royale

Thursday 25th February 2010 resident Compere Stephen Upsall welcomes Jeff Innocent, Tiffany Stevenson and Marty McLean to the Therapy Room Comedy Club at The Old School House, Chapel Place, Tunbridge Wells, Kent.

JEFF INNOCENT

Jeff Innocent

As evangelists for the ethical, eco-friendly movement go, Jeff Innocent must be the most unlikely. He’s as far from the Guardian-reading, sandal-wearing hippy stereotype as you could hope to get – a reconstituted East End geezer complete with regulation shaved head and no-nonsense cockney bluff.

His strength is not his social viewpoint, but his well-practised skills as a superior stand-up of many years standing.

"'He commands the room, hits strong gags with confidence and style and has the audience bending to his every whim. In short, he's one funny man - whatever the environment. "
Chortle UK Comedy Guide

TIFFANY STEVENSON

Tiffany Stevenson

The stunning Tiffany Stevenson, described as “Magnificent satire-fresh and funny”. Tiffany is a staple of the comedy circuit and her incredible comic talent has bought her a huge amount of TV work including “Balls Of Steel ” (CH4) and “Comedy Cuts”.

Tiffany Stevenson began standing up in 2005. As an actress she has already worked alongside well known comedy talent such as Ricky Gervais (The Office) Jon Bird (Chambers) Stephen Fry (Absolute Power). In 2006 Tiffany burst onto the Edinburgh scene with a lead role in the European première of Talk Radio helmed by Stewart Lee.


MARTY McLEAN

Marty McLean

Marty McLean, the latest member of the Canadian invasion coming here and taking our comedians’ jobs, his delivery is as slick and professional as you might expect from a North American act. He exudes confidence and control, yet remains relaxed and easy-going, but all the while ensures the set skips along at a decent pace, thrilling audiences with his excellent observational material from routines about David Attenborough to the female obsession with writing notes.

Marty has been touring across North America and Europe for the past 11 years, performing at numerous improv venues and the World Famous Comedy Store in Los Angeles and made two memorable appearances at the Montreal Just For Laughs Festival.
