We want all our guests to have a great night so please respect those around you by turning off your phone and not talking whilst the show is in progress. We can only refund or reallocate if the show is cancelled. Thanks! \nMarkus Birdman’s dad is a real life vicar and his uncle is a bishop. Neither of these facts have any bearing on his comedy whatsoever but we have been booking him for years and he smashes it every single time. And\, yes\, he is the guy from BGT. \n“Made me laugh so hard it hurt” BBC “Consummate comic” The Stage \nTen years since his BBC New Comedy Award win\, things have been going rather well for Steve Bugeja ( ‘Boo-Jay_Ah‘ seeing as you asked). His jokes and stories have taken him right around the globe with Melbourne\, Australia being a particular hot spot for Bugeja fans. \nSteve’s no stranger to the small screen either with appearances including The Russell Howard Hour\, Love Island: Aftersun\, Russell Howard’s Stand Up Central and Zoe Ball on Saturday as well as a couple of appearances on Australian telly. Steve’s humour is very much in demand behind the scenes too\, he’s head writer for Iain Stirling’s CelebAbility and co-created and co-wrote the ITV sitcom Buffering.  Fun fact: Steve’s cousin was the prime minster of Malta. \n“Bugeja has an eye for original comic detail that’s all his own.” The Guardian  “Plentiful jokes and compelling storytelling” The Scotsman \nAs seen on BT Sports DIY Pundit\, Danny Ward has an affably manic style that certainly wins over the crowds. It’s everyday things that fascinate Danny and he’s also a big fan of charity shop tat. If you have ever wondered how to plunge the entire national Wetherspoon’s chain into chaos then Danny has the answer which is as hilarious as it is simple. Whether he’s riffing off the audience or having his entire performance dictated by his FiloFax (ask your mum)\, Danny is a solid and unique comedian who seriously beefs up any comedy night. \n“Worked brilliantly”. Bournemouth Echo  “Slick\, quick\, and packed with funny” ★★★★ Three Weeks \nYour evening comes complete with Bristol’s Dani Johns “Effortlessly charming” ★★★★ The Wee Review  \nThe comedians you see at Gerrards Cross are booked by Comedy In A Van

We can only refund or reallocate in if the show is cancelled. \nAlex Boardman cut his comedic teeth on the burgeoning Manchester scene with sets at the Frog & Bucket followed by an all nighter at The Hacienda! Family life has tempered the inner wild child but it’s certainly added to both the maturity and the relatability of his stand up. A gifted gag smith\, Alex writes for a lot of big names and TV shows including John Bishop\, A Question Of Sport and many we’re not allowed to say! \n“A great comic” Sarah Millican “Double funny” Shaun Ryder \nBradfordian Howard Walker had a dream; he wanted to be a rock star.

Fully seated. 18+ Proper sweary swearing. We want all our guests to have a great night so please respect those around you by turning off your phone and not talking whilst the show is in progress. We can only refund or reallocate if the show is cancelled. Thanks! \nDublin stand up Kevin Gildea started off in a sketch troupe with a certain Ardal O’ Hanlon! A regular on the international circuit for many a year he proudly boasts to have appeared everywhere ‘from Singapore to Sligo’ as well as all the major comedy festivals. A regular on Ireland’s RTE his many telly appearances span everything from interviewing everyone from Eddie Izzard to Kermit The Frog. He also popped up in Father Ted as Father Cave. Stand up comedy remains Kevin’s first love though and we can’t wait to see him unleashed on the unsuspecting folk of Chorlton. \n“Very\, very funny.’ Tommy Tiernan  ‘Comedy on another level.’ Irish Times “Explosively funny’. Sunday Times \nGender fluid and dyspraxic?  Liverpool’s Sam Serrano certainly has a mine of comedic material in his day to day life and it’s small wonder their dark and self deprecating wit has taken the circuit by storm.  It has also seen Sam provide tour support for Brennan Reece and perform an incredible five solo hour shows at Hot Water Comedy Club\, Nottingham and Leicester Comedy Festivals \n“Killer lines…  expect to see more” Chortle  “Laugh-out-loud funny” Yorkshire Post \nOnce famously described as “Spewing out one-liners like he had just scoffed a dodgy prawn” by the Daily Record\, Dundee’s Paul Pirie‘s brand of high energy lunacy puts him very firmly in the Robin Williams school of comedic performance. Everyday tales of domestic mishap are vividly brought to life by Pirie’s manic antics. Be prepared for the unexpected and some very silly noises too. \n“Hilarious rubber-faced clown” The Scotsman \nKevin Daniel takes the middle spot.

A regular on the international circuit for many a year he proudly boasts to have appeared everywhere ‘from Singapore to Sligo’ as well as all the major comedy festivals. A regular on Ireland’s RTE his many telly appearances span everything from interviewing everyone from Eddie Izzard to Kermit The Frog.

SUMMARY:Comedy @ The Rabbit Hole\, Ramsbottom

Fully seated. 18+ Proper sweary swearing. We want all our guests to have a great night so please respect those around you by turning off your phone and not talking whilst the show is in progress. We can only refund or reallocate if the show is cancelled. Thanks! \nSteve Gribbin first took to the stage at the tender age of 13. He was cruelly beaten into third place by a ventriloquist and a Donny Osmond impersonator. By his late teens\, Steve was fifty per cent of comedy duo Skint Video just as something called ‘alternative comedy’ was beginning to infuriate the tabloids..\nAll good things come to an end and Skint Video was no different. Steve got custody of the guitar and metamorphosised into the comedy circuit’s most prolific and productive performer. \n‘A highly refreshing and original comic. Hilarious!’ The Scotsman   ‘Pulls it off with real aplomb.’ The Independent \nStephen Bailey\, (Live at the Apollo\, Celebrity Mastermind\, Takeshi’s Castle etc) is a proud Northern\, working class\, gay man. Although best known as a TV presenter it’s the arena of live\, stand up comedy where Stephen really shines. Gossipy\, bitchy\, close to the bone even\, but with such an infectious sense of fun everyone gets the joke and no one is left behind. \n“Natural talent” Metro “Rising star” The Sun \nYour show comes complete with MC Rob Riley and Kat Price\n\nComedy @ The Rabbit Hole\, Ramsbottom is booked by Comedy In A Van

A regular on Scottish TV and radio\, he has also written for Have I Got News For You\, Mock The Week\, and 8 Out Of 10 Cats and created the BBC’s biggest ever online hit\, News At 3\, which has over a quarter of a billion views! \n “Remarkably accomplished stage presence… blistering material” Sunday Times “Talent that is simply obscene” List\n \nOnline viral sensation Louis Burgess has been dubbed the freshest and most exciting musical comedy acts in the UK. Louis may have over 50 million online views but it’s live where he really comes alive. His rip-roaring concoction of singing\, rapping\, sampling\, beat boxing\, strumming\, looping and more creates a fire hydrant of comedy. Frequently described as “Bill Bailey on Crack” and “The Russell Howard of the Grungecore Folk Scene” he aims to create a new sub-genre within the genre of genre itself. \n“Charisma charm and wit… had the crowd in stitches” Teignmouth Post  “Crying with laughter” North Devon Gazette \nDave Longley can delight a hen party and the comedy connoisseur on the same night. on the one hand\, abrasive\, crude and insulting and on the other\, articulate\, intelligent\, charming and disarmingly funny. Longley’s towering stage presence and intensity\, combined with his cutting wit have made him one of the most popular circuit comics in the UK\, whether it’s doling out thought-provoking insights or revelling in toilet humour\, Longley is a gifted wordsmith with great audience interaction skills. \n“Highly original and bloody funny” Three Weeks “Intelligent\, silly\, thought-provoking and filthy” Metro \nWales’ Stuart Thomas is your middle act. The comedians you see at The Met\, Bury are booked by Comedy In A Van. \n  \n  \n  \n

He’s also been described as “Nasty\, offensive and dangerous” by National Student so take your pick! \nTen years since his BBC New Comedy Award win\, things have been going rather well for Steve Bugeja ( ‘Boo-Jay_Ah‘ seeing as you asked).
