Live at The Core - Charlie Baker

Modern showman Charlie Baker headlines a night of hilarious comedy in the Studio at The Core!

Headlined by the hilarious Charlie Baker! Charlie’s versatile talents as a stand-up comedian, actor, and highly acclaimed jazz-singer have seen him earn a reputation as ‘a superior take on the modern showman’ (Guardian). On screen, he has starred in countless shows including The Last Leg, Harry Hill’s Tea Time, Comedy Central at the Comedy Store, The Great British Bake-Off: An Extra Slice, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Richard Osman’s House of Games, Edinburgh Comedy Fest Live, The Dog Ate My Homework and Channel 4’s Comedy Gala.

Charlie starred in the leading role in Harry Hill’s Tony! The Tony Blair Rock Opera at London’s Park Theatre, receiving four stars from The Times. His acting talents have also seen him star in Back, Eastenders, Vexed, Doctor Who, Miranda, the TV adaptation of Four Weddings and a Funeral, and The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas.

Charlie can be heard on Talksport every Saturday for the Game Day Warm Up as well as covering on weekdays on Hawksbee & Jacobs. He’s also a regular on The Football’s On and The Premier League Show. Following his smash-hit UK tour in 2023/2024 with his stand-up show 24 Hour Pasty People, Charlie’s special was filmed at Torquay’s Babbacombe Theatre and is available to stream now on NextUp.

Opening the show is David Ward! Recognisable from BBC Three’s We Are Klang, David Ward is one of comedy’s most sought after presenters, writers and comedians. David’s upbeat warmth and spontaneity has made him the choice host for the heats for both BBC’s New Comedy Awards and C5’s So You Think You’re Funny? and corporates all over the UK, with a speciality in business and sports events and awards. His ability to engage with his audience and think on his feet makes him an ideal TV presenter and interviewer. 

David’s Edinburgh show The Whole Truth and Nothing But… was performed to great acclaim, proving his skills as a writer, storyteller and actor in addition to his presenting and stand-up skills. 

With Maidstone’s cheeky chappy Andy Fox! Up-and-coming comic Andy was crowned the winner of the Komedia New Comedy Award in 2024 and is a Leicester Comedian of the Year 2025 nominee. 

Hosted by Ryan Mold!
