£5.00The Comedy Virgins Max Turner Prize Competition 2021
It's time for the most overly produced, overly supportive, online open mic comedy competition in the world!
Shirl n Dave will be live at the Cavendish presenting the show in a frenzy of energetic clapping, cheering and shouting - with the amazing Adrian Tauss and friends chucking in heaps of technical thrills and spills with filming, editing and effects to make sure those watching at home feel fully immersed in the action!
We will be broadcasting live on Facebook with Dave whipping the audience up into a whirlwind of excitement - there's even a £150 prize for the most regularly, ridiculously supportive audience member throughout the run. Let your friends know!!!!
Each of the 6 heats will have up to ten comics performing a 3 minute set via zoom from the comfort of their own homes, to our Facebook live audience who will be judging via an online poll.
As a special treat each heat will have a celebrity comedian performing a ten minute set, as well as acting as part of our expert judging panel. We've already signed up Sarah Keyworth, Mark Watson, Josie Long, Shappi Khorsandi and Sooz Kempner... Other big names to be confirmed!
For the final we will be inviting one of our celebrity comedians to perform live at the pub (rules permitting!) and join other expert judges including Shirl and Dave, stand up comedian and CV MC Sikisa, and of course Eddie the Punter - who has judged nearly all of our competitions in the last 12 years.
The winner will receive £250, plus a photoshoot with the fabulous Adrian Tauss of Swiss Chocolate Pictures, and he'll also design you an amazing animated graphic to top and tail a professionally recorded set at The Cav!
