Combining stand-up with his skilled ventriloquism and puppetry, Max blends the best variety traditions with contemporary comedy.

‘Max is brilliant! He’s Old School meets NuSkool in the best and funniest way!’ Mel Geidroyc

Alexander Bennett’s comedy has been variously described as dark, silly, filthy and thoughtful. He has numerous Edinburgh Fringe runs under his belt, has filmed several stand up specials and he created the cult hit comedy game show Hell To Play. He has recently started his new podcast Born Yesterday ​with comedian Andy Barr.

He was a key player in Mark Watson’s Comedy Marathon, was nominated at the Leicester Comedy Awards as part of Consignia and co-orchestrated a huge charity event at the Pleasance Grand in Edinburgh called Dan Vs Food, in which a cast of 25+ comedians (including Phil Wang, Ed Gamble, Iain Stirling, Nick Helm, Sophie Duker and Ivo Graham) watched a man called Dan eat his lunch.“Passionate and praiseworthy dark observational comedy”THE SKINNY

Javier Jarquin

Javier Jarquin is an extremely experienced and highly respected, multi-skilled performer. Having performed his critically acclaimed show Card Ninja in 27 territories, Javier has established himself as a masterful entertainer.

Javier was raised in New Zealand with Latin-American/Chinese parents, and skilfully weaves his unique perspective into every performance and delivers sharply executed insights on life as an immigrant. In addition, Javier’s joke rate is something to be envious of, a witty quick-hitter.

The perfect all-round entertainer with an abundance of skill, comedic flair and excessive likability, Javier is one to watch.
