A Laugh In Stockport Comedy Club – Thurs 26 February

Event information

Join us for an evening of first-class comedy at Thread – Stockport Market Place’s gorgeous Belgian bar!

Canadian comedian Allyson June Smith honed her craft headlining multiple high-profile festival slots at the Winnipeg, Halifax and Montreal’s Just For Laughs festivals, winning nominations for Best Female Stand-up at the Canadian Comedy Awards. A self-confessed “over-sharer”, Allyson serves up a potent observational cocktail of wit, bite and shame. Which means you’ll typically find her after the show, with a line of eager fans queued up to talk with her, to confess to her or to share some comically grisly detail from their own lives. Courageously self-deprecating, Allyson’s comedic gift is making every room, whatever the size, feel like an intimate group therapy session.

“Simply one of the funniest comedians I’ve ever worked with,” – Jason Manford
"Wasn’t afraid to be shocking and explicit… hilarious" – THREEWEEKS (EDINBRUGH)
“Yet another hilarious Canadian with great hair” – STEWART FRANCIS

Steph Bradshaw hails from a small town in Cumbria, but she's got big ambition! Energetic, endearing and hilarious. As seen and heard on Only Fans Creative Fund: Comedy Edition 2023, BBC Cumbria, BBC Radio 5 Live.

“Like a Northern Phoebe Waller Bridge…but better!” – Bridget Mulroy, Shakespeare North Playhouse
“You can't not enjoy her company on stage…lovely timing and material” – Toby Hadoke, XS Malarkey

Annabelle Devey is a Manchester-based comedian and host of the ‘Sex, Drugs & Crippling Debt’ podcast. In her short career she has already played at The Glee Club, The Frog & Bucket, and Just The Tonic, and sold-out a split show for the Women In Comedy festival. Annabelle used to be a bit of a party animal from a young age but she's packed that in now, and is totally nailing adulthood now…

“Will keep you laughing the whole way through” – The Mancunion
“An excellent comic” – Toby Hadoke, XS Malarkey

----------
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
