SUMMARY:Topcliffe\, November 1st 2022
DESCRIPTION:Hilarity Bites Comedy Club feat. Carl Hutchinson\, Steve Gribbin\, and host Rob Mulholland\nShow details:\n \nCarl Hutchinson\nOne of the hardest working touring acts in the UK\, Carl Hutchinson has recently performed several sell-out tours of the UK\, following support dates with Chris Ramsey on his tour of arenas and large theatres. \nCarl is a multi-award winning comedian\, having won the Beat The Frog World Series and Magners Comedian of the year awards in 2007. He's also a Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year Nominee and So You Think You’re Funny Finalist\, was seen on ITV's FHM Comedy Hero and performed at the highly respected Big Value Comedy Showcase in Edinburgh in 2011. \nCarl supported former three-time wrestling heavyweight champion and bestselling author Mick Foley on both of his UK Comedy Tours; in 2011 and 2012 respectively. Carl then supported Chris Ramsey on the last leg of his ‘Offermation’ tour in 2012\, has performed several sell-out Edinburgh festival runs since his festival debut show in 2012\, which was shortlisted in the Amused Moose Awards and received outstanding reviews from all of the major festival press. \n“Effortlessly hilarious. He captivates the audience with his perfectly timed suspenseful silences and plain-talking sense-making” - ★★★★ - Three Weeks \n“An absolute must... the next big thing!” - The Skinny \n“The comedy catalyst to a great night out” - Three Weeks \n“Hutchinson’s trump card is the way he interacts with the audience\, rolling with every ‘ooh’ and ‘aah’ his material generated\, giving a dynamism and spontaneity to his performance” - Chortle \n  \n \nSteve Gribbin\nSteve Gribbin is a diminutive guitar-wielding satirist from Liverpool whose scabrous comedy songs and off the wall observations have made him one of the firm favourites of the comedy circuit. \nSteve’s original comedy songs combine razor sharp lyrics with tunes that put their foot in the door of your mind and refuse to leave. Firmly based in rock ‘n’ roll and refusing to pull no punches\, these are not the ‘oh so witty’ ditties of penguin-suited plink plonk piano playing posh gobs. They are that rarity – comedy songs which are actually funny. \nFor nine years Steve was the smaller one in the dynamic comedy duo Skint Video\, stalwart’s of the Edinburgh Festival\, appearing on countless television programmes such as Saturday Live\, radio such as The Mary Whitehouse Experience\, and their own show in 1992/3 Songlines (BBC Radio 1). Skint Video went their different ways in 1993\, since then Steve has been storming across the UK and Ireland as a solo artiste. \n“A comic animated by proper passion... a trenchant treat” - The Guardian \n“You can count the number of truly imaginative comic singers currently on the circuit on the fingers of one hand. One of this select band is Steve Gribbin” - Time Out \n“Satirical songs are hard to pull off successfully\, but if anyone can do it\, Steve Gribbin can. In fact\, he pulls it off with real aplomb” - The Independent \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.\n\nTimings\nDoors open: 7:30pm\nShow starts: 8pm \n\nBuy tickets:\nTickets for this show are £10 per person if bought in advance\, or £12 on the day. Tickets can be bought from the link below\, See Tickets\, TicketMaster\, Skiddle\, WeGotTickets\, or contact the venue directly.

SUMMARY:Bishop Auckland\, November 18th 2022
DESCRIPTION:Hilarity Bites Comedy Club feat. Maff Brown\, Ashley Frieze\, and host Jon Pearson\nShow details:\n \nMaff Brown\nMaff Brown has been recommended as one of the top ten acts to see at the Edinburgh festival by GQ magazine. Twice. \nHe plays at all the top clubs in the UK as a headliner\, including at London's world famous Comedy Store. He is also in demand as a writer on top UK shows such as Mock the Week and 8 Out Of Ten Cats. He also made loads of 'Top Jokes at the Fringe' lists at the 2014 Edinburgh Festival. \nYou would have seen him on Comedy Central (UK) and in Jack Dee’s Lead Balloon\, or supporting some of the comedy heavyweights on tour such as Jack Dee and Greg Davies. \nMaff has also been a co presenter on Absolute Radio's Rock and Roll Football with Ian Wright and you would have also heard him on 5Live\, Talk Sport and BBC Radio 6. \n“Want an all out laugh-fest with gags-a-plenty? Maff is your man. A few months back I saw him tear the roof off\, generating more joy\, more laughter than any arena-selling comedian” - GQ \n“Howl out loud funny and refreshingly honest” - Metro \n“Maff is one of those comics that doesn’t need to try. Jokes fall out of him like gold coins coming out of a pirate’s chest” - Frank Skinner \n  \nReplacing Carl Hutchinson:\n \nAshley Frieze\nWith his charming\, daft\, and warm brand of music-infused stand-up comedy\, this guitar-toting funny man has been entertaining audiences across the UK for nearly 20 years. His original songs\, with well-crafted lyrics and catchy tunes\, span many genres from Jazz to Coldplay\, via 1960's girl-group pop! \nHe regularly appears at comedy clubs around the country\, and has been a resident MC at RipRoar and his own club. His YouTube channel contains original songs\, parodies and other strange goings on. \nAshley has something for most audiences. Intelligent\, geeky\, silly\, and occasionally naughty. He's a sharp\, MC\, and a powerhouse featured act appearing at theatres\, comedy clubs\, many many pub function rooms\, festival stages\, and even a moving bus! His solo Edinburgh Shows\, The Seven Deadly Sings\, and Discograffiti led to the release of his albums on all good streaming platforms (and many bad ones). \n“brilliant quick-fire lyrics” - Three Weeks \n“Certainly knew how to raise the big laughs” - Edinburgh Evening News \n“...affords the show a feeling of quality” - Chortle \n  \nReplacing Sully O’Sullivan:\n \nJon Pearson\nJon began standup comedy in 2010\, with his first performance at Birmingham’s Highlight Comedy Club. Cut to the present and Jon has become a regular face on the circuit\, performing at prestigious clubs such as The Glee\, The Boat Show & The Comedy Store\, Jon’s career has even taken him overseas with performances in Spain\, Norway and even as far away as Wigan (it is like being on another planet). \nJon is also a familiar face on at comedy festivals across the UK having taken three solo shows to the Leicester\, Nottingham & Edinburgh festivals with the highlight of the all coming in the form of a sold out show at his home town Melton Theatre in Melton Mowbray. \nJon has also provided tour support for Darren Harriot on his UK 2018/2019 tour and Lucy Porter on her UK 2017 tour. Jon’s laid back storytelling has audiences hanging on his every word. With tales based around his own life experiences\, his anecdotes are relatable and certain to have audiences in hysterics. \n“Very tall and hugely funny” - Lucy Porter \n“Brilliant” - Shropshire Star \n“A natural ability for working an audience” - EdFringeReview.com \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.\n\nTimings\nDoors open: 7:30pm\nShow starts: 8pm \n\nBuy tickets:\nTickets for this show can be bought online at www.bishopaucklandtownhall.org.uk\, in person from Bishop Auckland Town Hall\, or telephone 03000 269 524.
