Hilarity Bites Comedy Club feat. Craig Campbell, Jenny Hart, and host Danny Deegan

Show details:

Replacing Josh Jones:

Craig Campbell

A formidable stand up comedian, Canadian-born Craig Campbell is one of comedy’s most charismatic and inventive performers.

With sold out runs at the Edinburgh Festival and performances at the Montreal Just For Laughs festival, tours of Craig’s many solo shows have been extended due to popular demand. He has supported Frankie Boyle on tour and appeared as a featured guest live with Jim Carrey!

Craig's TV appearances include Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow (BBC One), Russell Howard’s Good News (BBC Three), and Dave’s One Night Stand (Dave).

“One of the finest comedians in the country, no the world, a well traveled genius” - Russell Howard

“One of the most skilled storytellers and jokesmiths on the circuit... Craig is simply a very, very funny man" - Chortle

 

Jenny Hart

British Comedian of the Year finalist & Winner of Best Alternative Act 2023 AND 2024 – Jenny Hart, is the self-proclaimed ‘Bad tranny’. Joyously wrong and infinitely dirty, lusciously dark and often quite flirty, Jenny always has the room in stitches for her winning combination of colourful stand-up, edgy songs and witty crowd work.

Jenny is the funniest transgender comedian with a guitar in the UK, period (or not). Jenny electrifies every bill and is sure to have stand-up die hards and first time comedy goers alike laughing out loud with her dark n’ delicious musical quips! Originally hailing from Woking Jenny has already gigged across Europe, Oz and the USA – She’s GLOBAL baby!

“She’s a bold, brash, shameless presence full of gloriously inappropriate jokes and twisted, dark songs gleefully mocking some awful things. It’s a ribald, vulgar set, full of crude knockabout humour delivered with blunt vitality. An absolute crowd-pleaser... she’s a powerhouse surely poised to storm the circuit” - Chortle

 

Danny Deegan

Danny Deegan is a comedian, writer and actor who began performing in 2003 and has since risen steadily through the ranks of some of the most prestigious comedy clubs in the UK. His tales of mischief and the characters he creates have kept audiences all over the country enthralled as he weaves in and out of the people he has met travelling. His talent and likability coupled with a confident swagger see him as one of the most popular acts in the North.

Fresh from a successful run at the Edinburgh Fringe, where he received rave reviews, Danny also recently performed a headline set at the Green Man festival in South Wales getting a great reception from the 400 people in the marquee and being asked to wrap up for Manchester band Doves after their headline set in front of 12,000 people.

Outside of live work Danny has made several TV and radio appearances. From being a guest on Radio GMR to having his own show "Afternoons with Danny Deegan" on CAT FM in Crewe. His TV credits include appearances on "Made in the North" and "The Adam and Shelley Show" to name but two.

“His seamless interactions with the crowd demonstrate that he’s a natural-born comedian... appealing to both the young and old, female and male” - Three Weeks

“Charming, witty and most importantly funny” - Metro

“Deegan has a mature confidence in his abilities” - Chortle
