TweetThe Rhostio Rooftop Comedy Festival is back! Now in its fourth year, Roasted Comedy has another special summer in store, with six weeks of double bill previews from some of the most exciting voices in comedy, with acts from across the UK bringing you advance previews of their latest solo shows before they take them to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Join us live from the Rhostio roof terrace* for top quality coffee, cocktails and comedy!
Capacity is strictly limited out on the terrace, so buy your tickets in advance to secure your seat at just £8.50 each (£10 on the door), or get in early with an earlybird ticket for just £6.50!
Lineup:
CORDELIA GRAHAM: FAINT HEART NEVER F*CKED A PIG
My 5”3 father had a mantra: faint heart never f*cked a pig. Marriage, millions and a 500-seat opera house built out of a former cattle shed were his. Whereas I’ve built nothing physical: I’m a comedian, a comprehensive schoolteacher and a former teenage champion of Classical Greek recitation competitions. On Easter Monday 2025, he died from dementia and now I’m left trying to live up to his mantra without taking it literally. An hour of storytelling and stand-up about writing the eulogy for my dad’s funeral and how I reconciled the identity of my father, my hero, with my own.

Great line up for a good cause. Shame the venue/layout wasn't really conducive to a comedy night, or maybe it was the audience who seemed to think it was ok to talk whilst the comedians performed, and noisily rustle crisp packets throughout... Maybe with a different layout and audience, I would recommend it... Rob Hughes and Costas were particular standout stand ups! :-)
