The comedians for the 1st November 2024 are Clayton Jones, Peter Brush and Pete Teckman

Age guidance 18+yrs

Clayton Jones has an observational
comedy act which he considers marriage, kids, being mixed race, text messages, school life, and growing up in London but
now living in Lancashire!

“This dude has funny bones” Romesh Ranganathan

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.

Alex Boardman is now one of the most sought-after acts in the country due to his ability to interact with any audience and to seemingly conjure something out of nothing. His free-flowing style and natural charm breeze through in performances.

“Very Funny, a rare mixture of wit and charm”
The Guardian
“Improvised witticisms from the acerbic Mancunian. A veteran of the Madchester phenomenon, his loved-up reminisces and tall tales can lead anywhere on any
given night.”
The Times
“Call the cops, double funny”
Shaun Ryder (Happy Mondays)
“You are very funny my friend.” Eric Cantona

his ridiculous northern accent.
