A STAND-up comedy night will takes place at Evesham Arts Centre Theatre on Saturday, August 12.

Among the acts is Danny Buckler, the ex-resident magician at Harrods, and Mundo Jazz, a spoof Panamanian jazz musician, fresh from the Wychwood Festival in Cheltenham.

Danny described as the "fast-talking mind-reading magician" previously seen on Channel 4 with Victoria Wood, has performed for Liam Gallagher, Patsy Kensit, Bruce Willis and the Sultan of Brunei and the British troops in Bosnia.

Joining the line-up will be Rob Riley, alias Rob "The Gob" Riley, an Oldham comic and compere with a dark humour, and Dave Ingram, an easy-going, wry, sideways-looking comic from Lancashire, who also appeared at the Wychwood Festival in June.

Doors open 7pm. Tickets are £8 (ACE members £7) from the box office, on 01386 48883 or at www.eveshamboxoffice.co.uk.
