The evening will be headlined by critically acclaimed stand-up Bethany Black – a stalwart of the scene who can be seen performing up and down the country, as “one of the UK circuit’s finest night-time raconteurs” (British Comedy Guide).

This event will be raising money for the awesome charity; the Proud Trust – a life-saving and life enhancing organisation that helps LGBT+ young people empower themselves, to make a positive change for themselves, and their communities.
