Feb 2nd Zoe Lyons, Mike Gunn, Holly Walsh
Sad to say that our Big Name comic for Feb 2nd has had to pull out due to TV filming schedule changing. Grrr. * Cue heart attack* We’ve tried everyway to shift that date but have been unable to. This is always the risk we take when booking such an act ( Russell Kane btw- we are hoping to get him back when his schedule isn’t so crazy) so please accept our utmost apologies. Thankfully this is a rare occurrence at Red Imp. We’ve replaced Russ’ extended set of 40mins with 2 of the best acts in the UK today; ZOE LYONS and MIKE GUNN and we still have the wonderful talents of Holly Walsh. So we now have 3 acts instead of 2.
