99 Club
The 99 Club's annual showcase for new female & non-binary comedians heading to the Edinburgh Fringe has quickly built up an excellent reputation for talent spotting. The last showcase, back in 2019, included Janine Harouni and Sophie Duker, who both went on to pick up award nominations and make a name for themselves. This year's quintet, selected by the 99 Club, clearly boasts names that will also go on to great things.
The 99 Club ihas announced the finalists in their showcase of the comedy industry’s up and coming female & non-binary acts. The showcase will happen at 8pm on Tuesday 7th June at The 99 Club’s flagship West End venue, Arboretum Leicester Square.
The 99 Club has announced the reinstatement of its bursary schemes, after a hiatus caused by the Pandemic. This bursary is dedicated to female and non-binary artists who are taking their first full length solo comedy show to the Edinburgh Festival - a major step in a comedian’s career.
