Noel James (Wales)

Noel James will present his famous Monty Python show,His show includes outrages comical scetches and songs..if your a fan of Monty Python, come see Noel, he will blow you away.His sporadic delivery, not only does it have totaly tropical taste and perfect timing but indeed it stems from his mouth which has its dark origins firmly.

But not for him the comedy of stereotyping - he finds it all too easy. Well, he is a Capricorn (near the Sagittarius end which makes him a Saggycorn)- His act is joke, joke,joke all the way - though some of it consists of non-baby-talk. Above all, his act is highly original; the guy who wrote it assured him of this.

Surreal, bizarre, absurd, intelligent, and yet, somehow strangely attractive. No, seriously he is a very accessible act who generally goes down well anywhere.

TV Credits worth mentioning include:
Packing Them in -Channel 4
The Stand-up Show -BBC

"Liberates the lunatic side to our personalities - brilliantly!" - Time Out

Jimbo (Australia)

James John Dezarnaulds other wise known as Jimbo is straight from Australia.He is currently based in London,he performs in all the major comedy clubs including the Comedy Store and Jongleurs.His material is as raw as it gets,with his southern hemisphere attitdude, he'd make Crocodile Dundee look like an amature.During his set he will bring you on a verbal tour of his outback adventures and his experiences in performing in small mining towns scattered accross Australia.

Pedja Bajović(HR)
Pedja is here to host the Raw festival,Mr Bajovics comedy is sharp, but not all offensive to anyone apart from-himself!
He explores his everyday life, but also the world around him..In order to make life and his comedy more exciting, Pedja often takes a role of different people, his wife or even his mother in law, his boss or those of celebraty life and then he puts them all together.

Marina Orsag(HR)

Marina Orsag is the only woman stand up comedian in Croatia. She has a five year career behind her with more than 500 performances in her feet.

Beside Croatia, where she even performed for the President,

she won the audience in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Slovenia, where she is a regular guest.

She is three feet and a wish to grow up tall.

She was born few days after New Years eve. Her horoscope sign is Capricorn, undersign Aries.

Double horns are a pain in the ass for her and everyone around her.

She can never stand still, has worms in her ass so her ass saw the world.

She hopes it's gonna be like that forever, and that she won't loose a child in her soul while getting more mature in her head every day.
