Friday Night Comedy with the brilliant Quincy with Larry Dean and Tom Webb!



Quincy

Quincy is regarded as one of the best of a new wave of Comic's to come out of the UK, with a regular turnover of material and a stage presence second to none - that has put him among the most well respected Comics on the scene.

Starting out as a DJ playing in the RNB room at Twice as Nice, Quincy homed in on his comedic skills whilst MC'ing & quickly entered the world of comedy in 2000. Within the year, Quincy received instant recognition by doing warm ups for the hit TV show Blouse and Skirts on BBC1 and becoming a finalist in competitions such as Gagging For It in 2000, a runner up in the Leicester Mercury new act of the year 2001 & a finalist in the BBC New talent showcase 2002.

Quincy turned a full time Comedian in 2005 and went on to win the best break through act at the BECA awards (Black Entertainment Comedy Awards) and to headline at major clubs around the UK. His style and charm has also seen him perform around the world, from as far as Saudi Arabia to Austria where his wide range of material sees him adapt in all arenas. Taking solo shows Quincy's Single Mum & The Book of Quincy to The Edinburgh Fringe Festival, has made his name heard on the lips of Producers for potential TV stardom.

He started Quincy’s Comedy Lounge in 2007 and its popularity has seen it grow rapidly, selling out Theatres in his home town of East London - where he is now looking to expand to even bigger things.

Larry Dean

"A magnetic smile... thoroughly enjoyable", Broadwaybaby.com - Aug-2014
"That's one of the best stand-up sets we've had on Fred MacAulay & Co", Fred MacAulay broadcast live, BBCRadio Scotland from BBC Presents stage - Aug-2014
"This Glaswegian took the gig by the scruff of the neck. A large dose of charisma, stage presence and comedy timing, surely the big time is knocking on his door... urgently", on AAA show, one4review - Aug-2014
"It's easy to see why Larry Dean won Scottish Comedian of the Year... He can make people laugh, a lot. Friendly, charming, an exciting storyteller.. enchanting ****", on solo show, one4review - Aug-2014
"Hooray, then, for Larry Dean who opened up the final section with a funny and distinctive routine about being a non-stereotypical gay man. Or ‘bender’ in the terminology he prefers. He gets some laughs from those familiar old stereotypes, acted out with a silly physicality, but cliches are nattily explained away by him being a ‘homophobic homosexual’ . Experiences such as Grindr inform a lot of the rest of his set, but he has other strings to his bow, as demonstrated by his affectionate but funny descriptions of the rest of his family, which provide a satisfying callback with which to end the set. A clear winner on the night.", Steve Bennett, Chortle - Sep-2013
"The final winner was Larry Dean, a skinny young Glaswegian gay man with not a camp bone in his body, whose hilarious accounts of his family life and the problems his sexuality caused there culminated in the undoubted top gag of the evening, which had the audience roaring for minutes. Obviously, you’ll have to look him out yourself if you want to know what that gag was", Venue Magazine - Apr-2013
"Larry Dean has all you wanted from a classic stand-up. Confident, easy-going, some great lines, and full of surprising twists", Alan Nixon - Apr-2013
"Like fellow Glaswegian gobs Billy Connolly, Kevin Bridges and Janey Godley, Dean is a natural storyteller and his riffs soon evolved into a fascinatingly funny tale with a brilliant pay-off...I'm sure Dean will be winning other awards in the future", Evening Standard
"Sharp and unexpected lines...a brilliant callback...sells them with an irresistible chutzpah", Chortle
"Genius with the audience...so endearing and sweet...knows how to warm you subtly with a bit of cheek, and then blast you into a bit of insanity", StageWon Edinburgh Fringe 2012
"Dean is a charming performer...he is amiable and chatty", Broadway Baby - Edinburgh Fringe 2012
"Engaging and funny, enough to make one think that a full hours set from him might be preferable", Three Weeks - Edinburgh Fringe 2012
"A master of audience control, wit and dark humour", Giggle magazine
"An instant hit with the crowd, thanks to great audience interaction and embarrassing personal stories", The Portsmouth News
"Friendly, cheeky and approachable demeanour adding slickness and professionalism", Crispy Comedy Cuts
"One particular comedian stood out tonight – Scotsman Larry Dean built an improvised set round questions from the audience, no matter how surreal and odd they were", Efestivals.co.uk
"I am shocked and slightly perturbed by his exuberance and quick wit. Knock Knock Channel 4", Scott Capurro (Perrier Award Winner)
"A high energy and engaging comic with a knack of reading the room, Larry Dean shows good writing and accomplished delivery every time", Mirth Control
"Displayed his masterful ability with an audience, seemingly able to make them laugh at will. Setting an incredible pace for the evening ****", Preston Fringe 2011
"Clever and funny. Expect big things from Mr Dean", Frog & Bucket
"Larry is brilliant and is one of my favourite people I’ve met doing comedy. Stormed my gig too. Lovely chap. Book him everyone!", H.A.N.D Comedy
"We have had Larry Dean at our club on two separate occasions, and on both, he absolutely brought the house down. The majority of our audience are regulars and have asked if Larry will be on the bill for the next club, despite having seen him twice already. I couldn't recommend this guy highly enough", No Strings Comedy Club
"A very good set, worked well with a tough room", Gary Delaney (Mock The Week)
