SUMMARY:Off The Rails Comedy Club\, Saddleworth
DESCRIPTION:Comedy in Saddleworth this August with Jamie Hutchinson (‘Wetherspoon’s Hunter S Thompson’ British Comedy Guide)\,  Channel 4’s Sean Lock Comedy Award Winner Eric Rushton (‘Every generation needs joke writers like him’ ★★★★ Chortle) Hannah Margaret and Brennan Reece (Live At The Apollo\, Top Gear\, Celebrity Coach Trip etc)  at Off The Rails Comedy Club Saddleworth Scroll down for comedians details. \nActs subject to change. Fully seated. 18+ Proper sweary\, swearing. We want everyone to have a great night so please pop your phone on silent and don’t chat whilst the show is in progress. Thanks! Sorry\, but we can only reallocate or refund if the show is cancelled.\n \nJamie Hutchinson‘s horrible dating past\, humiliating anecdotes\, and perpetual singledom may sound more suited to a counselling session but\, in the hands of this naturally funny craftsman make for a painfully funny set. Manc\, ginger and proud\, brace yourself for a full frontal comedic assault when Jamie pulls the mic form the stand. One liners\, puns\, pulling faces\, uncanny characterisations and clowning are all utilised as deadly weapons in Jamie’s one man war on the mundane. \n ‘Hilarious’ Seann Walsh Wetherspoon’s Hunter S Thompson’ British Comedy Guide ‘Phenomenal’ Notts Comedy Review \nOne of comedy’s more original thinkers\, Midlands based Eric Rushton is a former Leicester Mercury Comedian Of The Year and won of the first ever Channel 4 Sean Lock Award in 2023; \n‘They gave me a bunch of money and a bunch of prestige for that and I have a lot of anxiety that I didn’t capitalise on that success.’ \nWe can’t help but feel Eric may be being a little harsh on himself here as he has since appeared on ITV’s The Stand Up Sketch Show and BBC3’s Such Brave Girls which will be aired in 2025. A gifted writer\, Eric’s credits include The Last Leg\, Late Night Lycett as well as 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown. \nEric is currently on a sold-out tour with his latest show\, The Real One\, after a critically-acclaimed run at the Edinburgh Fringe. \n‘Will captivate you and have you doubling over in equal measure’ ★★★★ Entertainment Now\n‘Every generation needs joke writers like him’ ★★★★ Chortle \n★★★★ Fest Mag ★★★★ The Skinny ★★★★ The Scotsman\n \nBrennan Reece is a  working class wordsmith\, a stand up\, a storyteller and a self-confessed mummy’s boy. His boyish cheeks have recently cropped up on ‘Survival Of The Fittest’\, ‘The Stand Up Sketch Show’ and ‘Live At The Comedy Store‘. His stint on ‘Top Gear‘ has now racked up six million views. A true Northern voice with family close to his heart. Your mum is going to love him! Not like that\, you dirty little perv. \n“Absolutely incredible” Phoebe Waller-Bridge  ‘Beautiful\, raucous and touching‘ The Independent \nHannah Margaret is your middle act. Off The Rails Comedy Club is programmed\, promoted and produced by Comedy In A Van and held at The Royal George\, Greenfield. \nJamie Hutchinson\, Eric Rushton\, Hannah Margaret & Brennan Reece Off The Rails Comedy Club Saddleworth Sun 31 August 2025 (C) Comedy In A Van

Dan is going to be huge. \n“Raucously entertaining” The Guardian ‘A potent\, original fount of gags’ The Scotsman “Sweeps the room up in his exhilarating performance into a frenzy of laughter.” Chortle \n Off The Rails Comedy Club is programmed\, promoted and produced by Comedy In A Van and held at The Royal George\, Greenfield. \nPaul Sinha & Dan Tiernan preview their brand new shows at Off The Rails Comedy Club Saddleworth Sunday 27 July 2025 (C) Comedy In A Van

An accomplished folk musician.  \nThe crazy\, crazy bad ass world of folk has it’s downside though and when the cocaine and groupies got too much David bailed out and parachuted safely into stand up comedy. And\, guess what? He’s a bloody good comic too. David has some class gags\, routines and songs (well\, if you already own an accordion you might as well do something with it.) and hardly even mentions folk music. He will mention that he’s blind (which he is) but only in the context of making jokes about it. Deliciously dark\, quite twisted and devastatingly funny.
