COMEDY UNLEASHED – Edgy Comedy is Back!
Friday 7th June
with Scott Capurro, Lewis Schaffer, Jonathan Kogan and Josh Howie!
Show starts at 7.30pm
Having consistently sold out shows in London for the past 5 years, Comedy Unleashed brings more of its refreshing brand of stand-up comedy to The Hifi Club in Leeds.
Comedy Unleashed nights showcase comedians who have a spirit of exploration, are counter-cultural and eschew the bland and predictable. And, if a comedian gets cancelled, we like to put them on. The audience should be the only judge and if something is funny… it’s funny. Here’s a video from the London club.

Lewis Schaffer
Lewis is the darling of the satirical news show Headliners. He’s a top New York comedian who settled in the UK. He is particularly loved by women of a certain age - charming, unpredictable, spontaneously surreal and utterly maverick. Here’s a video of Lewis at the London club ‘What Do Trans Women Men Really Want?’
Lenny Sherman
Lenny Sherman is an actor, comic, writer and lovable cockney geezer. He played the Comedy Unleashed in London and stormed it. As an actor, Lenny has most recently appeared alongside Ant & Dec in several series of Saturday Night Takeaway for ITV, and in Late Night Mash for Dave.
Jonathan Kogan
Launching himself into the world of stand-up over the last 2 years with a genuine love for and fascination with comedy, he forges his sharp material from a combination of astute observations, self-deprecating Jewish humour and unique one-liners, all with a natural anti-authoritarian slant.
Here’s video of Jonathan at the London club ‘Drunk Girlfriend’
Josh Howie
Josh weaves lengthy tales out of everyday life that are utterly hilarious. He’s a brilliant storyteller. Josh is also a regular alongside Lewis on Headliners.
Here’s a video of Josh at the London club, ‘Marriage is Binary’.
