Hilarity Bitesize New Act & New Material Night, with El Purnell, Jack McLean, host Catherine Young & support

Show details:

El Purnell

El Purnell is a unique whirlwind of a crowd-pleasing comedy act. His energy and gags per minute are off the scale delivering many belly laughs and so much fun for the audience. He has a unique and clever spin delivering his set in Spanish with a springle of English. Audiences LOVE the interaction, jokes, and actual realisation they can understand him without speaking his mother tongue.

Highlights for Ecuador's No 1 comedian include several runs at the Edinburgh festival, TV shows for both BBC and Sky TV and international gigs in Ecuador, Ireland, Germany, and Thailand.

“That was staggeringly original” - Adam Bloom

“Hilarious, the funniest Ecuadorian act ever” - Ray Bradshaw

Jack McLean

Yorkshire’s own, multi-award winning Jack McLean is a rising star on the comedy circuit having made his TV debut as a Semi-Finalist of the BBC New Comedy Awards 2023.

Jack’s quick witted and conversational style has seen him go on to support Josh Jones, Fiona Allen, Morgan Rees and many more on their latest tours across the UK.

Hailing from Hull, he was named Hull New Comedian of the Year 2022 and Yorkshire Comedy Awards Best Breakthrough Act in 2023 before being invited to open for the Chris Ramsey and Friends Gala night at Hull Arena in 2024.

“One of the best new acts on the circuit” - Chortle

“An absolute star. Very, very funny” - The Stand

Catherine Young

Hilarity Bites New Act of the Year 2019

Winner of the Hilarity Bites New Act of the Year 2019, Catherine is quickly making a name for herself as one of the most exciting new acts to come out of the North-East in recent years.

Catherine occasionally absconds from Middlesbrough and the general misery of life, by running round the UK comedy circuit looking for anyone who will listen to her.

From North East and Irish decent, Catherine loves drinking, dancing and telling lies. Her comedy is light-hearted, full of mischievous stories and a warm and friendly humour that provides a short break from the stresses that life deals to us all.

This show will also feature support from several new acts, and established acts performing new material.

Note: Line-ups are subject to change in extreme, and unavoidable, circumstances.

Show may contain strong language and adult themes.
