From Live at the Apollo and Mock the Week to QI and Have I Got News For You, Zoe Lyons has become a familiar face on British television. Now the comedian is heading to Verwood to headline the latest Coastal Comedy night at The Hub.
Zoe began her stand-up career in 2003, having originally trained as an actress at London’s Poor School. Since then, she has become a regular presence on television and radio. She has also hosted the BBC Two quiz show Lightning and taken part in Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.
Known for her sharp observations and quick-fire delivery, she tops a three-comedian bill that also includes Nick Page and Michael Fabbri. Page, a former English Comedian of the Year and Britain’s Got Talent finalist, specialises in storytelling drawn from the more chaotic episodes of his own life. His comedy has taken him to festivals across three continents, with tales that can leave audiences wondering how much is entirely true.
Fabbri is another experienced performer on the UK comedy circuit, having appeared regularly at the Edinburgh Fringe and supported Micky Flanagan on his Out Out tour.
Coastal Comedy’s arrival at Verwood Hub is part of a growing programme of regular stand-up in the town. Founded by Adrienne Coles in 2015, the independent club has spent more than a decade bringing established comedians and emerging performers to audiences across the South West.
The Coastal Comedy Show (18+) is at Verwood Hub on Saturday 14th November at 8pm. Tickets £18 early bird, £21 advance or £24 on the door. coastalcomedy.com
