The Seven Raymonds
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Seven Raymonds were a comic revue troupe founded in 1987 by Oxford University undergraduates.
The Seven Raymonds were Stewart Lee,[1] Richard Herring,[2] Emma Kennedy,[3] Michael Cosgrave, Richard Canning, and Jo Renshaw.[citations needed] They supported the Oxford Review at the Edinburgh Festival in 1987.[4]
The troupe fell out over the continuing involvement of Jo Renshaw [5]. After Jo was told she could not take part further, arguments ensued and Richard Canning subsequently left the group. He was replaced by comic writer Tim Richardson.[6]
Lee and Herring became a successful double act on radio and television. Cosgrave became a jazz musician with Celtic band Sine and the bluegrass/jam band Daily Planet. Kennedy became a television presenter, actress and writer. Canning is an academic. Richardson works as a journalist and writer.
