JOEL DOMMETT is one of the UK’s most energetic and exciting
comedians returns to the road with his new solo show. A terrific
night with no artificial sentiment and plenty of huge laughs. His
self-deprecating stories, his fear of rejection, not unreasonable
social shyness and general everyman qualities bring everyone
onside. He is the master of set up and callback and an outstanding
storytelling comic. After receiving great critical acclaim for his
Edinburgh Fringe shows, he has gone on to appear in numerous
television shows including; Impractical Jokers, Russell Howard’s
Good News, Drunk History (Comedy Central), and Skins (E4).
