‘A success in every continent’ at LOL comedy club at the Atkinson 

Not many comedians are a raving success in every continent across the globe but Daliso Chaponda has breezed to success just about everywhere. He is rock solid bullet proof funny and never fails to reduce audience to hysterics.

This dynamic African comedian began his comedy career in Canada at the prestigious ‘The Just For Laughs Festival’ in Montreal. Subsequent appearances across Canada followed including CBC Television’s ‘Trans Canada Comedy Trail’ confirmed his position as Africa’s top comic.

Since then he’s been all over the world wowing crowds with his unique brand of top notch comedy. Along the way he’s racked up a clutch of TV credits including BBC Africa, Paramount Comedy, The World Stands Up as well as numerous shows in Australia and Canada.

A notoriously versatile and hilarious comedian he’s performed a filthy set in a Strip Club and a clean one hour show at a Christian Festival – in the same week!

“I laughed so much I thought I’d pass out!”  The List

John Hastings is an award winning Canadian who’s softly spoken comedy is powerfully funny. He pulls you in making you eager to see how each of his carefully spun tales conclude.

At a show filled with particularly intoxicated and boisterous revellers we’ve seen him not just hold people’s attention but take the roof off. At other shows with more ‘normal’ crowds his hold on the audience is nothing short of mesmerising.

No wonder then that having gathered a bunch of accolades and TV appearances in Canada and despite being relatively fresh to the UK, John has already appeared on Sean Walsh’s Comedy Spectacular (BBC3) with further success beckoning. Catch him now, while you can!
