Described as a “a brilliant comedian” by none other than Peter Kay, Steve Royle has had a career that has spanned everything from the Royal Variety Performance, to Phoenix Nights to coming third on Britain’s Got Talent. A first rate comedy act with unashamed vaudevillian echoes. A highly skilled juggler, Steve holds the official world records for balancing a Christmas tree on his chin and an ironing board on his foot. Much as we love Steve, we do sometimes worry about him.

“Comedy masterclass” The Stage  “Absolutely killed me” Ashley Banjo

First time in Saddleworth for the brilliant Joey Page. Joey was something of a cult comic, a hit at comedy festivals around the globe and popped up on Never Mind The Buzzcocks in it’s BBC 2 days. Now, there’s little better for a performer’s ego and reputation than being a cult but it can be tricky to pay those bills. Joey spent lock down working on something more accessible and has struck the perfect pitch between ‘old’ Joey’s niche appeal and the instant, big laughs modern audiences expect. A stunningly original funnyman at the height of his game.
