Globetrotting comedy controller Paul B Edwards is just back from staging shows in Norway and the Netherlands, but next week it’s back to North Herts for the mirthmeister.

The mini-tour kicks off on Thursday, November 6, when rising star Craig Murray and cult hero Trevor Lock hold forth at the Orange Tree in Baldock, with tickets £8 and the show starting at the Norton Road venue at 8.30pm.

The following night a fresh tag team of comics picks up the baton at Hitchin’s Woodside Hall, with Canadian Peter White and Comedy Store favourite Michael Fabbri on the bill. Tickets here are £10, with doors opening at 7.30pm and the show getting under way at 8.30pm.

Trevor is back in action at Letchworth Arts Centre on Saturday where he will be joined by Edinburgh Fringe hit Will Franken. That’s a £10 ticket, too, and you can reserve yours at www.letchwortharts.org or take your chances on the door from 7.30pm.

Paul will be on compere duties at all three gigs.
