Your Headliners:
Tom Houghton - @honourabletom
Tom is the ultra-privileged master of making the seemingly unrelatable, relatable. As seen on Netflix, Comedy Central and host of Very British Problems.
With a loyal fan base of over a quarter of a million followers, Tom is a social media star, thanks to multiple viral videos of his stand-up, insights into his incredible life and chats with his father (General the Lord Houghton GCB CBE DL). His videos have garnered millions of views thanks to their combination of humour, education and down to earth charm.
Following the success of his sold-out international tour, Tom’s taking his brand-new show “Deep” on its UK tour in September, as well as supporting Milton Jones for a second time. The man who asked us, “Do you ski?” is turning everything upside down and asking, “Do you scuba?”
Tiff Stevenson - @tiffstevensoncomic
Tiff Stevenson is a stand-up comedian, writer, and actor renowned for her sharp, socially conscious humour. With numerous successful shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, such as “Mad Man,” “Bombshell,” and “Mother,” she has earned praise for her ability to blend satire with personal insight. Her comedy often explores themes like feminism, politics, and mental health, delivering punchy observations with wit and authenticity.
Tiff’s talents extend beyond stand-up; she has made memorable appearances on TV programs like “Mock the Week,” “8 Out of 10 Cats,” and “The Apprentice: You’re Fired.” She’s also a familiar voice on BBC Radio 4, offering her comedic take on current events. As an actor, she has featured in both film and television, and her credits include The Office, Days That Shook the World, People Just Do Nothing, Roisin Conaty's GameFace and Slotherhouse.
Ali Woods - @aliwoodsgigs
Ali is a refreshing mix of the ‘every man’ and the ‘modern man’ delivering comedy with heart. He won Hackney Empire New Act of the Year 2020 and has appeared on BBC Radio 4, TalkRadio, TalkSport.
His online comedy sketches have gained millions of views and likes, and featured on LadBible and Buzzfeed UK. In 2022, he supported Russell Kane and Axel Blake on tour and in 2024 supported Adam Kay.
In 2024, Ali starred on Comedy Central Live and Stand Up Sketch Show and, following his third sold-out Edinburgh run, he toured his show ‘At the Moment’ to sold-out audiences across the UK and Ireland.
