Thanks!\n \nAfter a decade of slogging away at the comedy coalface\, Nina Gilligan joined the ranks of Vegas\, Manford and Ranganathan when she was crowned the 2021 Leicester Mercury Comedian Of The Year! \n‘Razor-sharp wit’ The Skinny ★★★★★ ‘Breath-taking’ Student Newspaper  ‘Charming sass’ ★★★★★ Deadline\n \nEntertaining 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! \nCo-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. \nAcerbic yet delightful\, grumpy but both hilarious and passionate.

A proud Northern\, working class\, gay man. 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 Ben Robinson. Didsbury Comedy Club is booked\, marketed and produced by Comedy In A Van \nNina Gilligan\, Garrett Millerick & Stephen Bailey coming to Didsbury Comedy Club\, Manchester on Sunday 4 February 2024 (C) Comedy In A Van \n\n  \n

Thanks!\n \nBrum’s Andy Robinson became a stand up quite accidentally as guitarist in ‘The Carpetsweepers‘ when his banter between songs reduced both the audience and his fellow musicians to hysterics. Tour support includes Sean Lock\, Rich Hall and regularly for Jo Brand who Andy has now worked with for many years. \n“The comedy equivalent of gold dust” Birmingham Post \nA regular on BBC One’s Live At The Apollo\, Tez Ilyas is also known for Tez Ilyas’ Christmas (Sky Arts)\, Man Like Mobeen (BBC Three) and has also appeared on everything from The One Show to The News Quiz and\, of course\, his very own The Tez O’Clock Show on Channel 4.

SUMMARY:Didsbury Comedy Club
DESCRIPTION:Mark Nelson\, Markus Birdman\, TBC and Dean Coughlin all at Didsbury Comedy Club! Scroll down for comedians’ details. \nThe bar temporarily closes at 7.45pm so we can start on time. Please get here before 7.15 so we can get you served and seated in plenty of time. Acts subject to change. 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!\n \nMark Nelson’s mix of dark humour\, cutting observations and superb one-liners have seen him firmly established as one of the UK’s biggest-hitting comedy powerhouses. With a likeable manner on stage belying some of the stronger content\, Nelson often has audiences laughing at things they know they really shouldn’t be laughing at. Since winning the first ever Scottish Comedian Of The Year Award in 2006\, Mark has gone from strength to strength. 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 “A remarkably accomplished stage presence… blistering material” Sunday Times “Talent that is simply obscene” List \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 \nCompere for the evening is former tattoo artist and host of the Mid High podcast Dean Coughlin.  Dean’s easy\, affable style has wowed festival crowds as far afield as New Zealand and Australia.  Closer to home\, Dean has supported fellow Liverpudlians Adam Rowe and Paul Smith on their UK tours. \nYour show comes complete with a guest act\, to be confirmed. Didsbury Comedy Club is booked\, marketed and produced by Comedy In A Van \n\n  \n

DESCRIPTION:Joey Page\, Tony Burgess\, TBC and Phil Ellis all at Didsbury Comedy Club! Scroll down for comedians’ details. \nActs subject to change. 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!\n \nJoey Page 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 lockdown 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. \n“Laugh-out-loud” ★★★★ Australia Times ★★★★★ Three Weeks \nTony Burgess has been making a living from this stand up comedy lark since his teens. An obsessive writer from an early age\, flab free gags are the hallmarks of Tony’s scintillating sets. Whether it’s musings on the Madchester days of yore or surreal takes on contemporary family life\, surrender to the onslaught of laughter will be your only option! All gags and routines come in Tony’s trademark Mancunian jackdaw delivery. \n“Great\, well crafted gags” The Times    “Sharper than a Stanley knife” The Visitor \nWho better to compere the show than the deliciously manic Phil Ellis? Phil’s hysterically funny and downright wrong kid’s show – Funz And Gamez was so funny the Edinburgh Fringe people had to create a prize for it. He’s also written and performed in three of his own Radio 4 series alongside Johnny Vegas\, Lee Mack and the late\, great Sean Lock. \n‘Much cleverer and much more stupid than you might think’. ★★★★ Chortle  ★★★★★ The Scotsman ★★★★ The Guardian ★★★★ Times  \nYour show comes complete with a guest act\, to be confirmed. Didsbury Comedy Club is booked\, marketed and produced by Comedy In A Van \n \n  \n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n

We can only refund or reallocate if the show is cancelled. Thanks! \nBrennan Reece is fresh back from supporting Joe Lycett on his Australian tour. Brennan has appeared on everything from BBC’s Live At The Apollo to E4’s Celeb Coach Trip. Now touring in his own right\, his cheeky\, chirpy interactive style makes him the perfect compere. And\, if you’re a bit ‘confused’ as to where you’ve seen him before it is him on the advert. \n★★★★★ Voice ★★★★★ Define Arts ★★★★★ Reviews Hub \nPaul Thorne is a highly respected comedian and regular member of The Comedy Store’s Cutting Edge team; performing material based on the week’s news in this prestigious topical show.Paul’s topical gags; spontaneous wit\, and surreal songs have taken him to Australia\, China\,\, Dubai\, Hong Kong\, Japan\, Singapore and Thailand as well as quite a few places on the way. . \n“A waspish\, sweary pleasure” Telegraph “A must-see comedian” The Guardian \nMC Alex Boardman\, cut his comedic teeth on the burgeoning Manchester scene with sets at the Frog & Bucket often followed by an all nighter at The Hacienda! Family life may have 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“Very funny” Sarah Millican “Double funny” Shaun Ryder \nArgentina’s Victoria Olsina takes the middle spot.

Thanks! \n Vancouver’s Glenn Wool reached these shores in the mid-Nineties and\, much to the disdain of lesser comedians\, it looks like he’s here to stay. When not at home in his adopted Essex\, Wool consistently sells out shows at the world’s biggest comedy festivals and has appeared on numerous TV shows. Topical\, engaging\, opinionated but never preachy and\, of course\, downright hysterically funny\, Glenn is a surefire hit in front of any audience.\n\n“Why aren’t you in a queue somewhere buying a ticket?” Scotsman\n\n“Effortlessly funny” Guardian  “Absolutely hilarious” Independent\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. Blapping bare mandem in the face with his unique blend of comedy\, music and cashews\, he can be seen up and down the country on most Wednesdays poncing about in the most disgusting of ways.\n\nNot afraid to break the boundaries of life itself\, expect to expect the expectancies of unexpected expectations. Man and beast simultaneously he often frequents comedy clubs\, parties and weddings he’s not invited to\, whipping out his distinctive radio face at every opportunity.\n\nFrequently 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\n“Oozed charisma charm and wit… had the crowd in stitches…his individuality\, cheeky smile and charm made him one to remember” Teignmouth Post    “Audience virtually crying with laughter” North Devon Gazette\n\nStuart Thomas is the middle act and your compere is Alex Boardman who cut his comedic teeth on the burgeoning Manchester scene with sets at the Frog & Bucket often followed by an all nighter at The Hacienda! Family life may have tempered the inner wild child but it’s certainly added to both the maturity and the relatability of his stand up.

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! \n  \nA very busy person is Andrew O’Neill. Yeah\, they are an award-winning comedian\, but they also find time to be an accomplished musician\, best-selling author\, Victoriana obsessive\, co-writer and star of Radio 4’s occult sitcom Damned Andrew! \nAndrew describes themself as a psychedelic non-binary whirlwind\, combining surrealism\, polemic and good old-fashioned stagecraft to produce uniquely counter-cultural stand-up and we agree that they pretty much do what it says on the tin. We would also like to add that Andrew is funny. Very\, very funny. \n  \nThere’s nothing Andrew loves more than taking a new show to the Edinburgh Fringe then touring it to the faithful. This all started with ‘ Winston Churchill Was Jack The Ripper‘ right up to his latest offering; ”We Are Not In the Least Afraid of Ruins; We Carry a New World in Our Hearts” . \n  \nAs a founder member of steampunk band The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing and author of the bestselling A History Of Heavy Metal\, Andrew’s a shoe in for music festival comedy stages and Glastonbury\, Download\, Leeds and Reading\, Bloodstock\, Latitude\, V-Fest have all been treated to Andrewisms and they once supported the Kaiser Chiefs! \n  \nBut what about the telly\, we hear you ask? Well\, there’s everything from Never Mind The Buzzcocks\, Saxondale\, 50 Years Of Rock Excess\, and Good News Week. \n  \nOne of our most distinctive and original comedic performers. Andrew O’Neill is a national treasure in the making. \n  \n‘Hitting new heights of comedic brilliance.’ Time Out  ‘His finely-tuned jokes are a joy to behold.’ Metro \n  \nStrolling onto stage like a missing Gallagher brother\, Oxfordshire’s Matt Bragg first picked up a mic in 2015 and quickly found his distinctive style. Matt’s ultra laid back delivery makes everything look oh so easy and his timing utilises pauses that would make Pinter wince. There’s a definite hint of Frank Skinner in Matt’s overall rhythm too and what’s wrong with that? \n  \nStyle over substance can work in comedy but Matt has substance in buckets. Tightly crafted gags and routines whose punchlines steer well clear of the lazy or obvious are just another reason audiences love him. \n  \nStand up comedy courses through Matt’s veins (he’s the son of renowned TV warm up man\, Bobby) and regularly writes for fellow comics\, television\, radio and social media campaigns. \n  \nCurrently supporting Ricky Gervais on tour\, Matt has also supported Harry Hill\, Clinton Baptiste and Soccer AM’s Lloyd Griffith. \nCome and see him before he’s filling stadiums. \n  \n“Thoroughly enjoyable” Reginald D Hunter  “Excellent gags!” Harry Hill  “Very good. Nice style\, great jokes” Justin Moorhouse \n  \nMick Ferry returns to compere too\, a man who needs no introduction to Manchester or London Comedy Store regulars but\, if you have yet to have had the pleasure\, he is\, quite simply\, the best MC working in the UK today. \nWhether he’s running with a scatterbrained idea\, an audience suggestion or dipping into his extensive mental files of absolute\, top drawer gags and routines\, the end result is a barrage of laughter from a very happy audience and that is what we are all about. \n  \n“See him or regret it” John Bishop“Absolute legend” Jason Manford ★★★★★ Mirror \n  \nDidsbury Comedy Club is booked\, marketed and produced by Comedy In A Van \n  \n \n  \n  \n
