Come on down, get hot and sweaty with us, you may just be seeing a star of the future.
Top comedians, a packed crowd, and one of Sheffield’s best pubs. Don’t miss it.
Sheffield’s legendary Thursday night comedy returns with another cracking line-up on the11th December
Get ready for a powerhouse night of comedy as The Lescar welcomes three of the sharpest, funniest acts on the circuit for an evening guaranteed to bring the laughs.
The ever-authentic Tom Douglas comperes with down-to-earth charm and a distinctly Sheffield twang. A natural host with warm humour and effortless rapport, he keeps the show moving with wit, ease, and true local flair.
A comedy favourite across the UK and beyond, Paul Tonkinson brings his trademark blend of high-octane storytelling, pitch-perfect observations, and irresistible charm. A former Time Out Comedian of the Year and a familiar face from TV and radio, Paul’s live sets are electric, polished, and packed with big laughs.
One of the most exciting and honest voices in modern stand-up, Simon Wozniak delivers bold, brutally funny comedy with bags of attitude. His sharp takes, no-nonsense delivery, and instinctive timing have earned him a rapidly growing following – and plenty of unforgettable moments on stage.
"Sheffield is home to one of the best comedy clubs in the country, The Last Laugh, a famously sweaty gig in the back room of The Lescar pub. You'd do a forty minute set, and come off drenched and have to change in the kitchen as the punters wandered past the door. For some reason I can still see the giant tubs of margarine , as I tried to look casual while conducting a post-mortem, shirtless and glistening, with the show host Toby Foster"
