Hilarity Bites presents... Patrick Monahan & Chris Cox March 20, 2011

Coming to Hilarity Bites @ Inside Out on March 20th 2011:

Patrick Monahan

Hailing from Middlesbrough, Patrick is a regular on the UK comedy circuit, and is in demand at comedy clubs throughout Europe, and also in the Middle East, thanks to his chatty, friendly style mixed with his hilarious story telling.

As well as being one of the biggest names on the comedy circuit, Pat is also highly in demand as a studio warm up, working on shows such as Friday Night with Jonathan Ross an The IT Crowd - and he's often to be seen on-screen on The Paul O'Grady Show (and the many replacements that have followed) as well as contributing to many talking head programmes and appearing on various Comedy Central shows.

An original writer and clever improviser skilled in audience interaction, Patrick's versatility, likability and engaging stage presence has popular appeal, be it as a stand-up, comedy character, host or presenter!

"He moves around the stage like a boxer working a ring, covering all angles and staying light on his feet. He is a walking advert for world harmony. Hearts will be broken, socks will be laughed off" - The Herald

"Monahan brightens any night he plays, he exudes warmth & charisma, an irrepressibly friendly & ebullient personality" - City Life

"He has all the charm of Ed Byrne, the energy of Adam Bloom and wild leaps of imagination that are resonant of Ross Noble" - The List

Chris Cox

Chris Cox is ‘one of the most exciting entertainers in Britain’ according to The Guardian, Time Out thinks, ‘he does tricks that would make Jesus proud… Loveable, geeky & deceptively talented,’ they’re not alone, The Times think he’s ‘stunning’ and ‘leaves other magicians scratching their heads.’ Chris agrees with all these things but also likes to think he’s far to modest to make them the first things people read about him.

"One of the most exciting entertainers in Britain. Sure to be playing bigger stages here and abroad soon… The hottest ticket in town" - The Guardian

"He’s brilliant, he’ll blow your mind!" - Ricky Gervais

"Properly impressive… You’ll be gobsmacked. Astonishing. His demonstrations are so remarkable you are left thinking he couldn’t possibly have done them. You don’t have to be able to see into the future to predict a good future for him. Astounding… great entertainment" - Chortle

MC Dan Nightingale

One of stand-up’s brightest stars. A natural performer, a brilliant compere and one of the most exciting acts in comedy; Dan mixes cutting observation and raucous gags with high energy audience work and a natural playfulness, engaging any crowd. Original, creative and totally un-predictable.

"Exciting and Imaginative" - Edinburgh Evening News

"A 100mph whirlwind....Brilliant" - The Manchester Evening News

"Magnetic, entertaining and wonderfully friendly" - Three Weeks

"Fantastic...He has it in him to be another Kitson or Noble." - Metro

"See this guy before he's a star!" - BBC

"Reveled in the chance to stray from the script and work his comedy genius. Definitely an act to watch out for." - Student Direct
