Bound and Gagged presents
"AAA Stand-Up"

Pleasance Courtyard, 7:30pm

A total sell-out in 2005 "AAA Stand-Up" returns with a brand-new line-up;
Christian Reilly - Rich Hall musical collaborator and BBC Radio 2 regular
Zoë Lyons - Winner of the Babycham Funny Women Award 2004.
Kevin Dewsbury - "A class stand-up" INDEPENDENT

Christian Reilly - As a former integral part of the Perrier award-winning show 'Otis Lee Crenshaw and The Black Liars', Christian's career has taken him around the world three times, stopping on the way to receive accolades at international festivals and numerous TV appearances in the USA & Australia. Now a highly sought after act, in his own right, Christian uses his dynamic guitar and vocal skills to target histrionic rock bands, musical theatre and morose indie musicians. He recently appeared in 2 series of "Jamin'" and 'That Was Then This Is Now' both for BBC Radio 2. "A star in the making" Metro

Zoe Lyons -Since winning the 'Babycham Funny Women Award' in 2004 and reaching the finals of Channel 4's 'So You Think You're Funny Awards' in the same year Zoe's success as a live act and compere has flourished to such a degree that she is now undoubtedly one of the best female comics on the circuit. A regular guest on LBC radio, her TV appearances include 'The Golden Rules of Comedy' Sky, 'Weapons of Mass Distraction' ITV 1 and a Hollywood correspondent for Channel 4's breakfast show.
"confident, razor sharp Lyons" Observer Magazine

Kevin Dewsbury - reached the final of the Hackney Young Comedian of the Year Awards in 2002, and his performing career has since gone from strength to strength. His first appearance at the Edinburgh Festival garnered rave reviews - Three Weeks applauded his "Cracking Stand up, smashing, funky, lively, remarkable, individual and fresh", whilst Time Out Magazine considered "Dewsbury's slickness and sheer talent will win you over in one click of his comedy fingers". Kevin regularly performs at the UK's top comedy clubs, including The Comedy Store and Jongleurs.
