Josh James & Laura Smyth (Work In Progress)

Join Josh James & Laura Smyth as they trial new material and work on their upcoming debut tours.

Josh James – Josh James is one of the UK’s most exciting breakout comedy names. Voted Essex Comedian of the Year, his cheeky chappy persona lends itself to perfectly delivering a wealth of material which has been described by The British Comedy Guide as ‘Deceptively clever laddish jokes’. Josh performed on The Lateish Show with Mo Gilligan (C4) and is Babatunde Aléshé’s main support act on his smash hit tour, Babahood. He appeared on Audible’s Mo Gilligan’s Spotlight podcast series and was most recently seen on Big Brother’s Late & Live (ITV). 2024 sees Josh support Mo Gilligan on his World Tour.

Laura Smyth – Laura Smyth is a comedian, writer and actor from East London.
In 2019 Laura won the Funny Women Awards having only been doing comedy for 5 months. Since then, she has continued to take the comedy scene by storm; a favourite on the live circuit Laura has supported Jack Whitehall and Michelle de Swarte on tour and played the Comedy Arena at Latitude, Reading and Leeds Festivals.

TV appearances include ‘Live At The Apollo’ (BBC Two), ‘Frankie Boyle’s New World Order’ (BBC Two), ‘Jonathan Ross’ Comedy Club’ (ITV1), ‘Yesterday, Today and the Day Before’ (Comedy Central) and ‘As Yet Untitled’ (Dave).
