the christmas special

thursday 12th december - Ticketed £15PP SOLD OUT.

Gun Brewery, in association with Village Idiot Comedy, are pleased to offer you an unforgettable night of comedy with compere Adam Preston presenting two brilliant acts.

Ria Lina is the only Filipina comedian in British stand-up and has a BSc in Experimental Pathology, an MSc in Forensic Science and a PhD in Virology under her belt, so it’s not only Ria’s comedy that’s highly intelligent.

Ria has taken six shows to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival with her work tackling topics such as autism, motherhood, political correctness, feminism and racial identity. Her career stretches from stage and screen to radio and the occasional ukulele – all in a unique style described by ‘The Scotsman’ as ‘fearless, provocative and very funny’. Ria Lina (born 4 March 1987) is a touring comedian, actress and writer and has been named as one of The Evening Standard’s ‘Hottest Comedians You Should Be Watching Now’. Her extensive list of credits includes guesting and hosting Live At The Apollo (BBC), Have I Got News For You (BBC), QI (BBC), Mock The Week (BBC), The News Quiz (Radio 4), The Now Show (Radio 4), Late Night Mash (Dave), and star of Lovestruck High (Amazon Prime).

Matt Foster - Blending disarming likability with a fierce comic mind, Matt conjures eruptions of laughter from seemingly out of nowhere, delivering a show that leaves audiences gasping for air. Rocketing onto the comedy scene in 2015, he was quickly noticed and signed by Canada’s largest comedy club chain, Yuk Yuk’s Comedy, and has headlined comedy clubs from coast to coast. With thousands of performances between Canada and the UK, Matt was invited to be part of the Just For Laughs Originals series, showcasing the best in Canadian comedy. Now making his home in the UK, Matt has appeared on BBC Radio London, and can be found regularly performing on the UK comedy circuit and on comedy stages around the world.

"A comedic treasure and an absolute joy to watch on stage!”

— Angie Booth, Yuk Yuk's Comedy (Calgary)
