Elliot speaks to Michael McKenzie, one of the performers lighting up this year’s Ram Comedy Festival 2026. Michael talks about Bed 32, his £5 show at The Belfry Bar inside The Old Bell — a wild hour built around a real hidden‑camera prank filmed inside a hospital with patient actors and unsuspecting staff. He also shares what audiences can expect from his storytelling, the chaos behind the stunt, and how it all comes together on stage.
They also discuss his appearance in the Ram Comedy Festival Comedian of the Year Final, taking place on 7 June at The Grand Regency Ballroom, where the six semi‑final winners battle it out for the 2026 title.
