Hilarity Bites Comedy Club feat. Emmanuel Sonubi, Rob Mulholland & host Andy Fury

Show details:

Emmanuel Sonubi

London based Emmanuel Sonubi has only been on the comedy circuit for what fills like five minutes and he’s already garnering himself a reputation as “THE one to watch out for".

An ex-bouncer and failed contestant of ‘The Worlds Strongest Man’, Emmanuel was born and bred in the East End of London where he extracts most of his hilarious interactions with the vibrant cockneys and reprobates he has encountered. Now a father of two, he has a wealth of material of playing pranks with his kids as well as his awful parenting skills.

Since 2015, Emmanuel has rocketed through the ranks, regularly playing prestigious clubs in the UK such as The Comedy Store, as well as playing internationally and being hand-selected by Jason Manford to support him on his 2018 arena tour. `

“A new talent at the door of stand-up, his name's down and he's definitely coming in” - Russell Kane

“I've only seen this guy destroy rooms” - Seann Walsh

“Emmanuel is so incredibly funny, and I'm not just saying that because I'm scared of him” - Joel Dommett

 

Replacing Jake Lambert:

Rob Mulholland

Six foot seven of pure funny, Rob Mulholland is a bombastic, mischievous gag-slinging rascal with a heart full of humour and gob full of shite. An established, bullet-proof comedy pro forged in the fires of the Nothern comedy circuit who now travels the world packing big belly laughs. A regular at all the biggest comedy clubs in the UK; whether going for the kill with his playful filth-mongering and hilarious, furious tirades against minor annoyances or holding a night together with his genial but sharp hosting skills, he can adapt to any kind of crowd and event.

Rob is the co-host of hit podcast “Dead Men Talking”, has written for Mock The Week, and was seen on BBC iPlayer’s "Comedians’ Rap Battles". Rob has also won multiple awards, including being the English Comedian of the Year joint winner, Beat The Frog World Series Winner, Hilarity Bites New Act of the Year Winner, Funhouse Comedy Champion of Champions, and SA Search For A Star Winner. His hit Edinburgh Festival show 'Popular Comedian' can be streamed now on Amazon Prime.

“Very, very tall and equally as talented” - Time Out

“Great delivery and a confident swagger... A riot” - Lancashire Evening Telegraph

“Perfect delivery... had the audience bursting into spontaneous applause” - York Press

 

Andy Fury

Despite starting comedy out of “sheer boredom” just a few years ago, Andy Fury has impressed a lot of people in a short space of time with a wonderful mix of self-deprecating dark jokes and off the wall surrealism.

With a laidback stage presence that sometimes borders horizontal, he’s as hard-working as he is funny and winning the Hilarity Bites New Act Of The Year 2010 title has put Andy on the path to working at many of the best clubs in the country, wowing audiences the length and breadth of the UK.

“An absolute genius of a comedian” - BBC

“Brilliant... The next Pub Landlord of comedy” - Hexham Courant

“A very funny man with a big future ahead of him” - Corby Radio

 

This show will also feature a newer act in the middle.
