SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: The Big Comedy Weekend!

Leicester Comedy Scene and Lions Eat Ice Cream proudly present…

'THE BIG COMEDY WEEKEND'

Fri 11- Sun 13 July

at the Criterion Free House, Millstone Lane, Leicester.

As proud supporters of live comedy, Leicester Comedy Scene are absolutely thrilled to announce that they have teamed up with local hotbed of comedic talent Lions Eat Ice Cream, to bring you a whole weekend of fantastic shows by some of the finest local acts, along with some very special guests indeed.

We've spent many hours since the recent comedy festival contacting our favourite acts and putting together what we think is an awesome schedule of full one-hour shows, that showcase the best of Leicester and beyond. The flavour of the bill is distinctly alternative and packed with award nominees and winners from Dave's Leicester Comedy Festival (hereafter referred to as 'DLCF'), so it's bound to be a big draw for all you connoisseurs of fine comedy out there.

So, onto the line-up...
