Lee Ridley aka Lost Voice Guy is disabled but not silent. Born with Cerebral Palsy, complications at birth resulted in Lee losing the ability to speak. Undaunted, Lee started performing Stand Up Comedy earlier this year using an iPad tablet computer and after an unprecedented meteoric rise and publicity from local and national press including Sky, BBC, ITV, The Sun and CNN, is now headlining comedy clubs across the country!‘"Breaking down barriers and having a laugh"- ITV newsJeff Lantern is a Mentalist. A conspiracy factist who is going to save the world (again) and destroy the stigma surrounding mental health issues.‘To say Jeff Lantern is out of this world would not be an under-exaggeration, he may be bonkers, but he is very funny!’- Patrick MonahanEach show will also be MC'd by TV star and winner of ITV's 'Show Me The Funny', Patrick Monahan! Seen here, with Jeff, modelling a TRUTH EXPLOSION mug.The 2 shows are part of the Laughing Horse Free Festival and are downstairs in the City Cafe at 5.30 on Wednesdays 8th and 15th August.Both shows are free, however due to the potential demand for tickets and the intimate performance space, the shows will be ticketed in order to ensure spaces are allocated fairly.
