About Comedy at The Nest: with Harriet Kemsley

Join us for Comedy at The Nest!

Headlining the show is the brilliant Harriet Kemsley. Harriet is an award-winning comedian, writer and actor, she starred in the reality sitcom Bobby and Harriet: Get Married (Viceland) and can also be seen on Last One Laughing (Amazon Prime), Hypothetical (Dave), Roast Battle (Comedy Central) and 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown (Channel 4). Described by Time Out as ‘a very funny rising star’ and as one of Rhod Gilbert’s ‘Ten Comics to See’ in the Mail on Sunday.

Opening the show is Rory O’Hanlon. Having started his career in Dublin, award winning Irish stand-up comedian and actor Rory is a firm favourite at comedy clubs across the UK and Ireland. Described by Chortle as having 'presence, poise and timing', his rapid fire delivery regularly has audiences crying with laughter. Rory has been seen on RTE’s New Comedy Awards, Republic of Telly and alongside Des Bishop in Under the Influence. 

Joining them is up and coming comedian James Trickey who is 'naturally hilarious' (Edfringe review) with a sharp mind and unique perspective on life resulting in a combination of silly gags and hysterical stories. He has since performed up and down the UK as well as at multiple festivals. James was previously the Chortle student comedy runner up in 2018 and was recently shortlisted for the BBC New Comedy Award. 

All hosted by the brilliant Chris Brooker!
