Milton Keynes residents invited to attend online comedy gig for charity

    A star studded online comedy gig is being put on in aid of Rethink Mental Illness.

    The gig takes place on Wednesday, 17th February.

    The line-up includes Live At The Apollo and Mock the Week stars Russell Kane, Nathan Caton and Angela Barnes. 

    Funds go to Rethink Mental Illness to support people living with mental illness.

    MC for the night Siôn James spoke about the gig.

    "During the pandemic, the comedy industry has been devastated with comedians losing work and all their live gigs cancelled.

    "Charities have had a similar hit where they usually have annual fundraising events cancelled. 

    "However, through the magic of live zoom comedy, we can come together with the beautiful sound of laughter.

    "The mental health of both the audience and the comedians benefits from this community experience. Plus at the same time raise funds and awareness for Rethink mental health as the fragility of everyone's mental health has been tested in the last year or so."
