“Highly original and explosively funny” – The Sunday Times

“He’s one of the most daring and committed comedians at work right now. Brave, unafraid and compelling…..and very, very funny.” – Tommy Tiernan

“Comedy on another level.” – The Irish Times

Dawn Bailey is a forty something (ahem just turned 50) Mum who views life through happy specs and giddy knickers (her own words). Dawn won the XS Manchester Radio Comedian of the Year in 2016, which led to her presenting a show on the station. A regular on the UK comedy circuit, Dawn’s honesty regarding life and love are raw, straight to the point and comes with a no-holds-barred delivery. She is a merry maker and definitely loves to have a damn good chuckle.

"Pin sharp anecdotes from a life juggling a career, kids, attending weekly slimming club meetings and the joys of involuntary flatulence… she’s a very funny lady” – The BBCD

---------
Stephen Catling‘s high-energy surrealist clowning has to bee seen to be believed. His unique brand of comedy has brought him a host of accolades, including being shortlisted for both the BBC new comedy award and The Malcom Hardee Award for Originality 2023.

“Magnificently irreverent...charming and utterly bonkers“ – The Review Hub

“I found myself at different times laughing out loud, staring wide-eye’d, gushing with joy & wondering what the damninnit was going on!” – Mumble

---------
Danny Sutcliffe is your compère for the evening. Seen most recently on the big screen in the film ‘Mr Doom: Behind The 8-Ball’ – now available on all good streaming services – he's also a thoroughly lovely fella who lists standing on sheds and flipping tables among his many anti-social hobbies.

“Dazzles with his mix of surreal and observational gags. A manic, unruly energy belies a great writing talent” – The Skinny
