Spoonfed Live presents: Comedy on a Roof @ Dalston Roof Park
The last of our summer roof gigs features performances from multi award-winning Aussie Sam Simmons, wonderfully silly character act Cariad Lloyd (Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee 2011), Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year winner 2011 Tom Rosenthal (Friday Night Dinner, Chicken Soup with Barley), 'Buffoon Extraordinaire' Eric Lampeart and bonkers surrealist John Kearns as your MC. Come along early and enjoy a rump steak sandwich and a cocktail or two at the roof bar!
