Felicity Ward joins an already packed comedy line up at ALSO25 which takes place at Park Farm, Compton Verney, Warwickshire on 11th -13th July 2025 and also features ‘The Conspiracy Tourist’ Dom Joly on some of the most fascinating theories of this post-truth era, stand up and big ideas from comedy polymath Robin Ince, Rob Deering’s live music-based comedy pop quiz – Beat This! and BBC 4 regular Athena Kugblenu’s historic fact or fiction game show based on her acclaimed book ‘History’s Most Epic Fibs’.  

TikTok sensation Marcel Lucont is hosting his legendary Cabaret Fantastique, ensuring a night of smart, surreal entertainment. Hattie Snooks as Queen Mab creates otherworldly art-pop steeped in British folklore and An Evening With Charles Quarterman for One Hour offers up a spoken word fever dream. Julia Raeside discusses her powerful debut novel Don’t Make Me Laugh exploring control and manipulation and fighting back in a business that is anything but funny and Joel Morris (author of the acclaimed book Be Funny Or Die) leads a panel to unpick the parallels between comedy and horror.

ALSO’s comedy programmer Alexis Dubus said “We've got a brilliantly eclectic comedy and cabaret lineup at ALSO this year - musical mashups, surreal Americana, historical fibs, spooky woodland tales, conspiracy tourism, superb circus skills, Gallic sarcasm and wild Australian wit, there really is something for everyone.”
