Stand-Up Comedy February February 22, 2011

Tickets £6.00 / £3.75 concessions.

Jamie Sutherland

One of the freshest, most original acts to emerge in the last few years, Jamie has truly established himself on the comedy circuit, and is now very much in demand all over the UK. He will keep you amused with gags, tales, and stories. Liverpool born Jamie is a modern act, with many observational topics, and up to date material, and don't worry if you prefer a good old style gag, he has plenty of those to throw in too.

Chris Roche

Oldham comedian Chris Roche started performing stand-up in April 2003. His cheeky tales of growing up in Oldham, the frustrations of fatherhood allied to sharp observational and topical humour have been a hit with audiences far and wide. He has some great observations about the complexities of relationships and recently supported Jason Manford on the tour of his Perrier nominated show Urban Legend.

Graham Goring

Graham Goring has been performing stand-up comedy at clubs across the country for the past three years. His act is a breakneck series of one-liners - some clever, some stupid, some tasteless. Some really very tasteless, but all delivered with warmth and bonhomie.

Winner of the LOL award for best show at the Manchester Comedy Festival in 2009

Chris Brooker (Compere)

Spontaneous, witty and original; Chris Brooker has emerged as one of the hottest free agents on the UK comedy circuit. No two gigs are the same thanks to his unique mixture of top class material and inspired improvisation. Since his debut in 2001, Chris has worked the length and breadth of this country and beyond, sharing his observations and dragging unsuspecting audience members into his world for the night. Anyone in the building can be a part of the show at a moment's notice, especially if they can cartwheel.
