Comedian and writer Eleanor Tiernan has featured on Stand Up For Live Comedy (BBC3), Comedy Central’s The Alternative Comedy Experience and she has supported acts including Iliza Shlesinger, Stewart Lee, Tig Notaro, Ardal O’Hanlon, Jason Manford, Jason Byrne and Reginald D. Hunter. She has been a panellist on BBC Radio 4’s News Quiz and Where’s the F In News? and The Blame Game (BBC Northern Ireland). Recently Eleanor appeared in Holding, a new TV adaptation of Graham Norton’s debut novel. Eleanor’s style is “deceptively sharp” (Fest Mag) and filled with her trademark acerbic wit.

Katie Norris is a comedian, actress, and singer, best known as one-half of the acclaimed double act Norris & Parker. Their show See You at the Gallows was one of the best-reviewed at Edinburgh Fringe 2016, making The Guardian’s top 10 comedy shows of the year, while Burn the Witch (2018) sold out in Edinburgh and London.
In 2023, Katie won the Musical Comedy Awards and was a BBC New Comedy Awards semi-finalist. She debuted her first solo hour, Farm Fatale, at Edinburgh Fringe 2024 to widespread acclaim, selling out her run, adding extra shows, and earning a nomination for the NextUp Biggest Award in Comedy.
