TWO of the UK's fastest-rising comedy stars Seann Walsh and Steve Hughes will help The Comedy Zone in Worcester get off to a rip-roaring start to the new year.

The charming and charismatic Walsh will be presenting a new show of razor-sharp observational comedy called Ying and Young on Thursday, January 26.

Walsh is a natural observational storyteller and his talents have earned him recent TV appearances on hit shows including Mock The Week, Live at The Apollo, 8 Out Of 10 Cats and Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow, as well as becoming a team captain on TV channel Dave’s new series of Argumental.

Within two years of his first comedy performance he was named the winner of the Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year and other accolades quickly followed, including Chortle Best Breakthrough Act Nominee 2010 and Chortle Best Compere Nominee 2011.

He has also been listed as one of Dave's top ten stand-ups to catch in 2011.

Following hot on the heels of Walsh on Thursday, February 16 will be the inimitable Australian comic and ex heavy metal drummer, Steve Hughes, as he embarks upon his eagerly-awaited debut tour.

It comes on the back of sell-out shows at the Sydney and Melbourne Comedy Festivals and storming sets on Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow on BBC One, and One Night Stand on Dave.

Expect intelligent, straight-talking social commentary from one of the most thought-provoking performers to grace the UK circuit.

Doors for both shows open at 8pm with an 8.45pm start and tickets (£10 Seann Walsh, £13 Steve Hughes) are available from ticketweb.co.uk
