The Line-Up

Comedians on the Hot stage.

Every act we book gets a spot here. TV regulars, circuit killers, secret guests and the rising names to watch — all hand-picked for the Camden room.

Who plays Hot Comedy?

Hot Comedy is a professional stand-up club in the basement of Hot Toddy's on Camden High Street. Every line-up is booked, not open-mic: a compere who knows the room, two support acts on the way up, and a headliner with festival, TV or radio credits behind them.

Most nights feature four acts across two halves, running roughly 90 minutes with a bar break in the middle. Line-ups are announced in the weeks before each show and often include work-in-progress sets from names touring the UK circuit, plus unannounced guests trying new material in front of a Camden crowd.

Each comedian below has a profile with their biography, credits, press quotes, socials and any Hot Comedy dates they are confirmed for. Banners on the photos show the next night that act is on stage.

Want to play the room?

We programme headliners and support slots several months ahead and watch the London circuit closely. If you are a working stand-up with a tight 20 and want to be considered, send links to recent live footage rather than a showreel edit — we book on how a set lands in a live basement room.

Promoters, agents and tour bookers: we also host previews and try-out nights for Edinburgh runs and UK tours. Get in touch through the venue and we will talk dates.
