Gits and Shiggles is one of London's best comedy nights, organising events throughout the capital as well as their residency at The Half Moon, Putney.

Headlining the show we have the fantastic Jess Fostekew. You’ll know her from appearances on Live at the Apollo, QI, Richard Osman’s House of Games and Motherland, as well as from her hugely popular podcasts Hoovering and The Guilty Feminist. Her show Hench was nominated for Best Show at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards, while her acting credits include Avoidance, Cuckoo, Scrapper and the BAFTA-winning Three Girls. Described as “a powerhouse on stage” (Evening Standard), Jess has established herself as one of the most distinctive voices in British comedy.

Our next act is the brilliant Ed Night. A two-time Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee, Ed became one of the youngest-ever nominees for Best Newcomer in 2017, before his 2025 show Your Old Mucker earned him a nomination for Best Show. His online sketches have racked up tens of millions of views, while his writing credits include The Mash Reportand Mock the Week. “As far as comedy goes, he’s pretty much cracked it” (The Scotsman).

Finishing the line-up we have Saturday Night Live UK’s Jack Shep. One of the inaugural cast members of the legendary show’s first ever British incarnation, Jack quickly became one of its breakout stars, with his Princess Diana impression going viral after the very first episode. You may also recognise him from Big Boys, Changing Ends and Netflix’s One Day, while his online comedy has amassed millions of views. Having gone from BBC New Comedy Award finalist to SNL UK cast member in just a few years, Jack is one of the most exciting new names in British comedy.
