He also appeared at the London Palladium twice within a month later that year when he performed as part of the TV show "Sunday Night At The Palladium" and as warm-up for "One Night With Neil Diamond". \nHe spent many years as "Special Guest" on Dave Spikey's Tours and has supported several other top comedic names including Peter Kay\, Mick Miller\, Roy Walker and The Lancashire Hotpots! He was also the first comic\, ever\, to act as "Warm-up" for The Royal Variety Show featuring Take That\, Rod Stewart\, Barry Manilow and Meatloaf. \nSteve's first love\, however\, is stand-ip and it is a job that has taken him all over the world: Cruises in the Med\, Norwegian Fjords and the Caribbean\, hotels and comedy clubs in Hong Kong\, Dubai\, Crete\, Cyprus\, Turkey and Japan. Meanwhile\, Steve is a regular headline act at the world-famous The Comedy Store\, and at venues throughout the UK. \n“A brilliant comedian” - Peter Kay \n“I nearly pushed my golden buzzer for you when I saw your audition because it's one of the funniest performances I've seen. I was totally wowed” - David Walliams \n“a comedy masterclass!” - The Stage \n  \n \nSteve Day\nSteve Day describes himself as Britains only deaf comedian\, and if there are any others then he hasn't heard. Actually there are a couple of others who have started since he wrote that joke\, but it's only a joke after all. \nFor the past dozen years Steve has been performing to huge laughter around the country and abroad - well\, they tell him the laughter was huge to humour him\, he doesn't know either way. \nMarried with five children (a fact nothing to do with not being able to hear the word 'No') Steve has been described as 'warm and witty' by the Scotsman and has received many other rave reviews whilst performing shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Chortle gave him five stars in 2007 for Deafy's Island Discs\, a show The Sunday Times called 'Funny and Moving'. \n“Revelatory and very funny” - The Guardian \n“Warm\, funny\, frank and thought-provoking” - The Scotsman \n“Wonderful” - Bath Chronicle \n  \n \nRob Mulholland\nSix 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. \nRob 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. \n“Very\, very tall and equally as talented” - Time Out \n“Great delivery and a confident swagger... A riot” - Lancashire Evening Telegraph \n“Perfect delivery... had the audience bursting into spontaneous applause” - York Press \n  \nThis show will also feature a newer act in the middle. \n  \nNote: Line-ups are subject to change in extreme\, and unavoidable\, circumstances.\nShow may contain strong language and adult themes.\nThis show will follow any COVID restrictions in place at the time of the event.

Christian Reilly\, Scott Bennett\, and host Lee Kyle\nShow details:\n \nChristian Reilly\nChristian Reilly is both a Perrier and Chortle award-winning musical comedian with “sex\, politics and rock 'n' roll” (The Scotsman) in the key of grrr. \nAs a former integral part of the Perrier award-winning show Otis Lee Crenshaw and the Black Liars\, with comic/songster Rich Hall\, Christian's career has taken him around the world three times. On his way\, he received accolades at international festivals and numerous network TV credits in the USA\, Australia\, New Zealand and Britain. \nNow a solo stand-up performer\, and headlining all the major comedy venues in his own right\, Christian uses his dynamic guitar and vocal skills to target histrionic rock bands\, musical theatre and morose indie musicians. He wrote and performed for 'That Was Then This Is Now' (BBC Radio 2) as musical counterpart to Richard Herring and Emma Kennedy\, as well as giving his improvisation skills an outing on Radio 2's 'Jammin'. \n“Blisteringly funny songs” - The Stage \n“If you’re a fan of Bill Bailey or Rich Hall\, you’re a Christian Reilly fan already” - The Guardian \n“The funniest songs I’ve heard in a long time” - The Scotsman \n  \n \nScott Bennett\nAs seen on Live at the ApolloBest show Nominee Leicester Comedy Festival 2019Amused Moose Edinburgh Comedy Award Nominee\nStar of lock-down hit Stand-Up From The Shed\, Scott Bennett is a multi-award winning act\, and one of the most popular headliners currently performing in the UK. Delivering wry observations on the absurdity of modern living\, his sharply-written routines\, drawn from real-life experiences have been delighting audiences across the country. \nIn 2018 and 2019 Scott was tipped as one of the "ones to watch" by respected industry online magazine\, Chortle\, following a series of highly rated solo shows\, award nominations\, and a high-profile tour support slot with TV's Rob Brydon. \nAs well as working as a succesful stand up comic in his own right\, Scott has written for high profile acts including Jason Manford\, is a writer for The Chris Ramsey show for Comedy Central and has written for the News Quiz on BBC Radio 4. \nScott has also appeared on BBC's Live a the Apollo\, Radio 4’s The News Quiz\, The Now Show\, The Likely Dads and Elephant in the Room with Sarah Millican\, The Summer Festival with Daliso Chaponda\, The Comedy Club with Arthur Smith\, and Knock Knock with Helen Lederer. He also featured on the BBC One show\, Live from The Edinburgh Fringe. \n“Fabulous turns of phrase and pungent expressions\, superb character creations” - Chortle \n“Great material\, great delivery\, a very funny man” - Rob Brydon \n“Brilliantly funny\, a joy to watch” - Chris Ramsey \n  \n \nLee Kyle\nIn his never ending quest not to have a proper job\, Lee Kyle spent time as part of an all male Spice Girls tribute act before spending a decade as a professional wrestler. \nManaging the difficult trick of being both odd and relatable\, he did a show at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2013 that he heard was well received but he doesn't read reviews because his psyche is too fragile to handle them so he isn't totally sure what they said. \nArmed with props and a rapid gag rate he cuts a confident\, if off-beat figure on stage. His jokes veer between the clever and the silly and deliver more than their fair share of belly laughs. \n“Had everyone on their feet - Sublimely ridiculous” - The Northern Echo \n“A brilliant performance.. Pure genius!” - NARC Magazine \n“Quirky and original - the highlight of the night” - Giggle Beats \n  \nThis show will also feature a newer act in the middle. \n  \nNote: Line-ups are subject to change in extreme\, and unavoidable\, circumstances.\nShow may contain strong language and adult themes.\nThis show will follow any COVID restrictions in place at the time of the event. \nWe want everybody to be safe and enjoy this show as much as possible\, so please follow the below instructions: \n\nIn order to comply with the latest regulations\, tickets are limited to only 16 groups of people\, and are sold in groups of 2 and 4 only.
