About

As seen on:

Comedy Rocks With Jason Manford (ITV1)

Celebrity Mastermind (winner) (BBC1)

With his easy charm, cheesy singing voice, razor-sharp wit and clownish physicality Rob has quickly established himself as a firm favourite on the comedy circuit around Britain.

Rob Deering performs stand-up comedy with music, using a guitar, a loop pedal and his voice to create impressive rock and pop soundscapes – and does jokes, of course.

Along with being one of the most in-demand headliners on the UK circuit, he’s toured nationally and performed solo shows at the Edinburgh Fringe many times since starting out in comedy in the year 2000. He also recently ran all over Britain for BBC 6 Music. Yes, Rob runs and presents the podcast Running Commentary with fellow running comic Paul Tonkinson, and fundraises for his favoured charity Parkinson’s UK having run seven marathons.

 “Ingenious and hilarious” The Guardian

“An evening in his company is nothing less than a joy” The Independent on Sunday
'Truly wonderful stand-up' (The Sunday Times)
'As sharp and versatile as a Swiss Army Knife' (The Independent)
 

Opening the show is the incredibly funny Phil Jerrod who began his stand-up career underneath an Angus Steakhouse in 2012. Since then he has failed his PhD, walked out of his job in publishing and been entertaining audiences up and down the country with his elegant rants on the often unfathomable problems of modern life.

“Casual brilliance” – The Guardian

‘Excellent. Her punchlines were as hilariously off-kilter as they were well-devised’

Local comic Adrienne Coles hosts the night, don’t miss it.
