Live comedy picks: Joe Lycett, Micky Flanagan, Mark Thomas and more

Fresh from the Fringe and with their bags barely unpacked, comedy returns to London this week (It never really left to be honest) an they’ve brought some newly anointed comedy award nominees with them.

Here’s some choice picks for you to choose from

Tuesday

Tuesday sees the 99 Club in Leicester Square host Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee Joe Lycett along with Matt Green, Yianni Agisilaou with MC Holly Walsh, visit the 99 comedy club here.

Also on the bill for the evening is the five-star show Austentatious, which sees comedians improvise a Jane Austen novel in 90 minutes down at The Wheatsheaf. www.austentatiousimpro.com

Wednesday

Micky Flanagan pops up on Wednesday with the first of three work-in-progress shows at the Soho Theatre. www.sohotheatre.com

The Pajama Men provide the improv laughs for the night with a show, also at the Soho Theatre. Basically the Soho Theatre is the only place to be this Wednesday evening.

Or is it? There’s also Comedy Hoopla which sees Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee Sam Fletcher join Laura Carr, Don Biswas, Hayley Crossland, Michael Kossew, Sam Furniss and Dan Green. See their twitter page for more details: twitter.com/ComedyHoopla

The Boat show rocks the Thames with Doc Brown, John Fothergill, Jim Smallman and Alistair Barrie taking to the stage. Visit the Boat Show website here.
