Comedy Nights at Woodford

We are delighted to announce the introduction of regular, live stand-up comedy nights here at WWMCC

There will be three comedians each evening and the bar will be open before, in between the acts and at the end of the evening.

Seating is unreserved except when you have a party of 6 people in which case we will allocate a table to accommodate your entire party.

Please email comedy@woodfordcom.com if you wish to be added to our mailing list about future events.

Tickets are £12 each and available from our TicketSource account – a small booking fee applies.

The comedians for the 17th May 2024 are Hayley Ellis, Jacob Nussey and Dave Twentyman.

Age guidance 18+yrs

Hayley Ellis has a natural warmth and girl-next-door charm that make her impossible to dislike.

In 2023 and 2024 she is appearing in UK theatres with ‘Hayley’s Comic Tour’.

“Small in stature and big in energy, Ellis simply makes you laugh.” – Giggle Beats

Jacob Nussey unassumingly draws in audiences
with his deadpan style, sharp jokes, ill-fated
anecdotes, and clever punchlines.

Effortlessly funny and quick on his feet, Dave Twentyman endears himself to the toughest of audiences as an act or a compere.

Dave started his career in the Northwest and by his 11th gig was making his first appearance on live television in “Made in the Northwest” in 2003.

After being recommended by Alan Carr, he became a regular guest on BBC Radio Manchester and XFM for a number of years.

Travelling around the UK and beyond, Dave has built a reputation as a consistently great act with his cheeky, chatty style, delivering light-hearted gags and stories you can’t help relating to.

He is no stranger to music festivals either, having gigged at the Leeds Festival four years in succession to thousands of people.

Dave now also proudly features on the Blackpool Comedy Carpet (www.comedycarpet.com).

Andy White is a Brummie who combines silly voices and a mad afro to devastating comic effect. Andy’s humour embraces impressions, funny faces, topical humour, and his mixed-race
background. He can do material that’s clever, cheeky, or just plain daft, and his performance can shift from deadpan to physical.

BBC Review: “Had me exercising my pelvic floor muscles to avoid an
accident” – Karen Slater, BBC Tees

“Northern everyday life made silly,”
Full to the brim with down to earth Northern charm, Mike Wilkinson takes a bemused glance at the world and then throws it a smile:
the laughs come thick and fast with Wilkinson’s dry humour and razor-sharp wit.

A professional comic for over 20 years, Michael has supported Peter Kay, Johnny Vegas, and Ross Noble, and headlines comedy clubs across the country.

Mike is also an accomplished pianist, guitarist, and beekeeper.

Mike Newall is proof that some people are just funny: his laconic
style, demeanour, and strength of material ensure the audience never leave disappointed.

“His timing is pin sharp, his control is deft, and his hair is immaculate” The Scotsman

“There’s something strangely elegiac about these modest little
insights into his life that make them more than just average observational comedy” Chortle

Liverpool has a history for producing some of the country’s finest comedy talent, and Jamie Sutherland can now be added to that fine list.
He is a headline act on the comedy circuit, working for the finest clubs including Sheffield’s Last
Laugh and Buzz Comedy.
Jamie is also a corporate hospitality MC at Everton FC, for all their home games.
Jamie is a modern act, with many observational topics, but throws in a few old-style gags too.
Jamie is extremely popular with corporate clients and has taken his show into Europe, entertaining
holidaymakers.
In 2008 he stretched as far as Sydney, Australia.

Peter Brush is a highly distinctive performer and deft writer of finely crafted jokes. He unassumingly takes the stage with his slight bespectacled frame and scruffy hair, before consummately conquering it with an arsenal of razor-sharp quirky one-liners and peerlessly original routines, all delivered in an amusingly awkward fashion.

This is a man whose lack of stage presence, lack of cool, and turned-down-to-two demeanour all reverse expectations and make him compellingly hilarious.

“ His deadpanning and quiet delivery draws in the audience and the first-class gag writing, complex and logical call-backs and dry, self-deprecating commentary had waves of laughter rolling through the room”

Pete Teckman arrived on the stand-up scene somewhat later in life than many of his peers but since his debut in 2009 he has progressed rapidly into a popular comedian who can be relied upon to produce laughs from any audience.

With a mix of self- deprecating and observational humour drawn from his life experiences, his comic stories are punctuated with a liberal helping of well written jokes and the occasional flight of surreal fancy.
