Comedy Festival returns with home-grown and TV talent

After a triumphant debut in April, the Questors Comedy Festival is returning this November with another star-studded line up of comedians, including Dominic Holland, father of Spiderman actor Tom Holland. He is joined on the bill by his collaborator, Ealing-raised Hal Cruttenden, who is returning to our theatre where he began his career:

“I grew up a short walk from The Questors Theatre. It was where I first saw a play and where I first acted (at the age of three). Only the lucky few encounter somewhere as special as Questors; an amateur theatre producing work of a professional standard.” Hal Cruttenden, stand-up comedian, writer, actor

TV favourites Ed Byrne and Marcus Brigstocke also feature on the bill, with award-winning stand-ups Shazia Mirza and Sally-Anne Hayward bringing laughs galore.

“After the success of our first Questors Comedy Festival in April, we are delighted to bring some of the UK’s best comedians to Ealing once again. We hope that audiences will enjoy the chance to see big names up close in our Playhouse theatre at affordable prices.” Simon Rudkin, Chairman of the Board, The Questors Theatre

Tickets start from just £17 and are on sale now at questors.org.uk/questors-comedy-festival-2026/.

The first Questors Comedy Festival in April 2026 was part of our fundraising campaign to replace the roof covering its Studio theatre and rehearsal rooms. The first phase of roof work has commenced and will be completed this Autumn, with further phases planned next Summer. The fundraising campaign is ongoing and can be found here: crowdfunder.co.uk/p/raise-the-roof-2026
