Johnny Awsum is set to headline at West Devon comedy and curry night Laughing Stock at the Salmon on Friday October 19. With his likeable style and trusty guitar, Jonny’s musings include everything from the white lies he tells his girlfriend to his new home town of Croydon and the memory of his first love at eight years old.
Comfortable with any type of gig, Jonny’s feel-good set has captivated audiences at every kind of venue from pub back rooms to 700 seat theatres to a sell-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe with his hit show 'Playtime'.
Jonny has played all the UK's top comedy venues including The Glee Club, Jongleurs and The Comedy Store and has performed internationally from Cyprus to Slovakia, Austria to Hungary. Along the way he has won The Magners Funhouse Comedy Gongshow and The Comedy Cafe New Acts Night.
