“She has the appealing air of not quite being of this world. But whatever planet she’s from, they know funny” – Chortle
“Welsh starlet, Anna is the breakthrough act of the moment and highly touted for a successful career in comedy. Comparisons with fellow Welsh comic, Rhod Gilbert don’t end with their accents; Anna’s delightfully grumpy and gruff delivery leaves audiences belly laughing” – Punch Drunk Comedy
“A dotty oddball with a giddy energy… tumble of daft ideas that sweeps everyone up with her daffy charm” – Chortle
“Anna Thomas is a Welsh delight on stage” – Skiddle
“She’s an odd fish, that’s for sure, but owns it.” Chortle
“Playful and whimsical, Anna Thomas has instant likeability.” - Nodding Dog Comedy

with host Jonny Collins
Jonny Collins is an aggressively inclusive Non-Binary comedian, Jonny pulls no punches yet makes everyone feel welcome and represented in their thought provoking, and well constructed deconstructions of gender, sexuality and politics. With radical leftist ideals and a fast and furious delivery style, Jonny Collins is a favourite of socialists, anarchists, feminists (of the trans inclusive variety), and queer activists alike.
“Jonny is a force of nature on stage. A whirlwind of hilarity with a unique viewpoint, they energy and passion personified.” – XS Malarkey
"Jonny Collins is deceptively rapid-fire, with a gag rate that would shame most one-line merchants. They can bring a simmer to a boil with ease, and make a huge mess of your kitchen." – James Ross (Quantum Leopard)
