SUMMARY:Comedy:  Conner Burns - 1994
DESCRIPTION:From one of the most exciting emerging new stars in the UK’s live stand-up scene\,1994 is Edinburgh native’s Connor Burns third solo hour. A prolific joke writer\, his Scottish-level cynicism and self-deprecation punctuates a disarmingly relaxed persona and an intelligent\, razor-sharp wit. \nConnor’s burgeoning reputation as “one to watch” was cemented at the 2023 Fringe when he sold out his entire run two months before the festival started. An additional 9 shows (2000 seats) were added – which also sold out\, with audiences even queuing for returns. The Daily Record called it when they wrote: “Just like seeing your favourite band for the first time\, being at a stand-up show when you know they are about to hit the big time is an equally big thrill. And this Edinburgh Festival Fringe will be the chance to have that feeling watching local boy Connor Burns become the next big comedy act out of Scotland.” \nIn addition to being in demand at the UK’s top comedy clubs and his solo touring career taking off\, Connor has opened for Larry Dean in the UK and for Daniel Sloss in the UK\, Australia as well as at the premiere show of 2023’s New York Comedy Festival. He performed a solo run of Vertigo off-Broadway in NYC and filmed the show for release\, closed the Sydney Comedy Festival Gala at the Sydney Opera House\, and even taped a Just For Laughs set in the landmark venue. Connor will tour globally throughout 2024-2025. \nWe are delighted to welcome Connor and his new show to Bristol’s Hen & Chicken Studio. If\, like us\, you love live stand-up\, then we recommend you check out this fantastic comedian and budding superstar early days – while you can still get a ticket!

SUMMARY:Comedy: Sara Barron & Guests
DESCRIPTION:Stand Up For The Weekend with Sara Barron featuring Joe Sutherland & compere Clint Edwards\nSara Barron is a relentlessly honest and desperately funny comic\, relating brutal and sometimes filthy truths in a warm and welcoming way.\n\nShe is an American writer turned stand up living in London. While Stateside\, she wrote for Vanity Fair\, published two essay collections\, and earned the role of host for the hit U.S. storytelling show\, The Moth. This\, in turn\, gave her the bug for live performance. It also introduced her to her (British) husband\, which prompted an eventual move to the UK. Her work has featured most recently on The Guilty Feminist\, BBC R4Xtra\, and Dave Gorman’s “Modern Life is Goodish”.\n\n\nAfter a number of years in the UK\, any semblance of American positivity has been stripped away\, replaced by withering British cynicism. There’s certainly more than a hint of Joan Rivers’s cold contempt as she sneers at the joyous affirmations of others.\n\nSara couldn’t be brassier\, sassier or louder-mouthed if she tried. She parades her sex life\, friendships and militant subjectivity across the stage.
