Comedy: A Gala for a little guy

There’s a big stir going on and it’s all to help three-year-old Kian Musgrove, in a last ditch attempt to save him from the cancer that’s ravaging him and get the treatment he so desperately needs over in the States. Now, without a certain helpful Brit invention called the NHS this is going to cost £555,000.
Good news – £445,000 of this has been raised already. Bad news – that still leaves £110,000. Good news – there is an incredible fundraiser taking place with some of the best names in comedy, hoping to plug some of the gap, and it’s in Brighton.
So, fill your comedy boots with this cracking lot! Fresh off all manner of successes is Romesh Ranganathan, bringing his misanthropy and spark to play. Mitch Benn (stalwart of BBC Radio 4’s The Now Show) offers up topical songs and stand-up. Firm favourite Zoe Lyons brings her own brand of high energy and highly acclaimed laughs. Plus BBC Radio 4’s Abi Roberts and The Dark Room’s John Robertson will be delivering up diverse and brain-twisting comedy for your delectation.
