House of Comedy is proud to bring you the best standups around, guaranteed for a night of laughter.

Elle Bert, known for her powerful mix of observational comedy combined with real life situations all sugar coated with a dark and controversial sense of humour, shall be hosting the first House of Comedy at Byline Festival. Elle will be joined by:

Lindsey Davies - A seasoned gin-drinker and laughter-maker, Lindsey has been working the comedy circuit for five years and made the Regional Final of the 2018 Funny Women Awards.

She is also registering for CIC Status to begin The Pound Project, which raises money for deposits and properties for the homeless.
