Suzi Ruffell: The Juggle

Royal and Derngate Theatre 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP

It’s hard to be good all the time. A good mother, a good daughter, a good partner, a good friend, a good person. To be ambitious but not ruthless; a success but not a sell-out. A gentle parent but not a pushover. To be smashing life and make it look easy. The juggle. Suzi is exhausted and she hasn’t even started. This is a stand-up show and a support group! The Juggle is a brand new tour from confessional multi-award-winning comedian Suzi Ruffell. “A fabulously funny show from a class act” – ★★★★ Evening Standard Suzi has appeared on Live At The Apollo, The Jonathan Ross Show, The Last Leg and QI. Suzi co-hosts smash-hit podcasts Big Kick Energy with Maisie Adam and Like Minded Friends with Tom Allen, as well as having her own podcast, OUT With Suzi Ruffell. She even finds time to host on Virgin Radio. Suzi’s debut book, Am I Having Fun Now? was released in June 2025.

Ania Magliano: Peach Fuzz

Royal and Derngate Theatre 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP

Fresh from starring in the latest series of Taskmaster, Ania Magliano (Live At The Apollo, Edinburgh Comedy Awards Best Show Nominee) brings a brand-new show full of jokes, confessions, and occasionally unhinged observations to venues nationwide. From the quirks of her own body to the legend that is Eve (yes, from Adam and), to her newly discovered boundaries, Peach Fuzz is Ania at her most relatable – and most funny. Ania has opened for Ed Gamble, Marc Maron and Catherine Cohen, and writes for Amelia Dimoldenberg’s Chicken Shop Date. Her choices on the Off Menu podcast are widely regarded as the worst of all time.

Emmanuel Sonubi: Life After Near Death

Royal and Derngate Theatre 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP

Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Newcomer nominee and Best Show nominee, Emmanuel Sonubi is back on tour after sold-out performances at the Edinburgh Fringe, his European Tour, and his hit New York Soho Theatre run. Emmanuel’s hilarious and heartfelt show explores his life after surviving heart failure, facing the cause of the trauma, and the strange and funny ways we all find to keep going when life gets hard. It’s about turning life’s toughest moments into comedy gold, finding the laughs in survival and the punchlines in perseverance. One of the UK’s most in-demand comedians, Sonubi is a powerhouse on stage, delivering unstoppable energy, razor-sharp wit, and stories that hit hard as he can and still land even harder. Come and see for yourself… (and bring your glasses)  “Big laughs, engaging tales, you’re seduced by the easy authority of his storytelling” The Guardian

Chloe Petts

Royal and Derngate Theatre 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP

Following three sell-out shows, Chloe Petts (Live At The Apollo, Have I Got News for You) returns with a brand-new tour, and she’s delving where she’s never delved before: this is a show about sex. The problem is that she blushes every time she says that word. Expect routines about Page 3, lad culture and most importantly, big, fat naturals. ★★★★★ “Hilarious… this is certainly comedy that packs a punch.” The i ★★★★ “One of our most compelling young comics” The Guardian
