"The Wolfson Howler has finally overtaken the Footlights Smoker as Cambridge's best comedy night."
- The Cambridge Student
"The friendly, fun and low-key atmosphere are enough to make sure I will never again not be at the Wolfson Howler."
- The Tab

 

Headliner

John Tothill is a comedian, writer and actor who has performed in venues across the UK and the USA, including Chicago’s Second City and New York’s UCB Theatre. He recently filmed Comedy Central Live, and was nominated for Chortle’s 2024 Best Newcomer Award. He made his Edinburgh Fringe debut last year with his one-man show, THE LAST LIVING LIBERTINE, which was one of 2023’s best reviewed Edinburgh Fringe Shows. He has since taken the show for a sold-out run at London’s Soho Theatre.
