First Thursday Comedy @ The Met, Bury

First Thursday comedy at Bury Met in September with Garrett Millerick (‘Brilliant’ ★★★★★ Three Weeks), Have A Word’s Dan Nightingale (‘Funny as hell’ Leicester Mercury) Elaine Robertson (★★★★ Fest) and MC Chris Lumb (Russell Howard’s Good News ) at the First Thursday Comedy Club at The Met, Bury. Please scroll down for comedians’ details.

Entertaining the metropolitan elites at London’s Soho theatre or the Edinburgh Fringe is one thing but keeping baying crowds of UK and US squaddies happy requires a slightly different skill set! In fact, keeping them so happy you get asked back three times is the hallmark of a solid comic at the very top of their game and that sums up the wondrously monikered Garrett Millerick perfectly!

Co-host of hit podcast Laughable (alongside Jayde Adams and Red Richardson), Garrett has also performed his stand up on hit US talk show Conan as well as all the usual venues, tours and support slots to be expected from a comedian this good.

Acerbic yet delightful, grumpy but both hilarious and passionate. We really can’t recommend Garrett Millerick to you enough.

“Brilliant.” ★★★★★ Three Weeks “Wonderfully funny.” ★★★★ The Times “A unique joy.” ★★★★ The List

Now best known as co-host of the Have A Word podcast, Dan Nightingale is widely regarded as one of the best performers working on the comedy circuit today. Mixing fiendishly accurate observation with energetic characterisations and killer punch lines, his comedy is original, playful, intelligent, poignant and exciting; sometimes ridiculous… but always hilarious.

‘Funny as hell’ Leicester Mercury ‘Enthusiastically charming albeit self-deprecating storyteller’ ★★★★★ Three Weeks

Elaine Robertson (‘More than just a Northern lass telling jokes’ ★★★★ Fest) takes the middle spot  The comedians you see at The Met, Bury are booked by Comedy In A Van
