Cally Beaton has a very funny and original comedic voice. Andy Engel, Gotham Comedy Club Director of New Talent
Cally Beaton is a great new comedian who puts the war in heart warming stories of modern life; from what to do when your kids post pictures of your vibrator on Facebook, to finding HRT patches in unexpected places like your new partner's hair.

CELIA DELANEY
Biography Celia Delaney is a musical comedian and MC, with twenty years' experience on stage and television, who started her career as an actress, touring as the lead in various successful period dramas, and later crossing over to comedy with her sell-out solo shows, Man Wanted! and Man Found!, which won her a nomination as Best Newcomer in the London Cabaret Awards 2015. Described as "funny, sexy and extremely engaging", her comedy songs and ad libs are a potent mix of intelligence and humour and keep audiences engaged and laughing throughout. She can even write a song for your event: in the past, she has written songs for clients about subjects as diverse as procurement, the NHS, franchising, the West Country and Twitter. Now she is a sought-after MC and entertainer, and is particularly good at hosting award ceremonies, where she adds a touch of glamour to proceedings. She also loves an academic conference, and having read psychology at Oxford, has been invited back to Oxford University to chair the International Speechwriters' Conference and has hosted events at Ashridge Business School, Institute of Directors, Nottingham, Surrey, and Exeter Universities and many other top academic institutions. She hosted The NatWest Venus Awards for three years in a row, and is often asked to host women's events and conferences including recently hosting the inaugural Margaret Damer Dawson Awards, celebrating women in policing
