SUMMARY:Darlington\, November 2nd 2019
DESCRIPTION:Hilarity Bites Comedy Club feat. Paul ‘Silky’ White\, Dan Nightingale\, and host Lee Kyle\nShow details:\n \nPaul 'Silky' White\nSilky has been a full time comedian since 1997. He did his first gig in 1994\, and his fourth gig (the final of the 1995 BBC New Comedy Awards alongside Lee Mack\, Daniel Kitson and Julian Barratt) was shown on BBC1’s Stand-Up Show. Other awards he has failed to win include the Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year (prize-winning runner-up 2000)\, the Liverpool Echo Arts and Entertainment Award (the only person to be nominated twice: always the sodding bridesmaid). \nSilky has performed internationally\, including gigs in China\, the Philippines\, the Gulf\, Singapore\, the US\, the Melbourne Comedy Festival\, and all over Europe\, including at the Glastonbury Festival\, where no-one lobbed bottles of wee\, much to his relief. He performed at the 2004 God’s Kitchen Global Gathering\, the 2005 Big Bang at Santa Pod\, and in the houseband for the Kilkenny Festival. Silky is also a regular at the Edinburgh Fringe\, where he plays to full houses every year at The Stand Comedy Club. \n“...a very\, very funny fella... just brilliant” - John Bishop \n“One of the comedy circuit’s most popular headliners... on the cusp of superstardom” - Yorkshire Life \n“Among the best of the circuit... born funny” - City Life \n“Always brilliant” - Metro \n  \n \nDan Nightingale\nDan Nightingale is widely regarded as one of the best performers working on the comedy circuit today. Mixing fiendishly accurate observation with energetic characterisations and killer punch lines\, his comedy is original\, playful\, intelligent\, poignant and exciting; sometimes ridiculous... but always hilarious. \nNamed as Best MC at the UK Comedy Awards 2015\, and nominated for Best Act at the Midlands Comedy Awards in 2016\, Dan began his comedy career in Newcastle in 2002\, and founded the Frog and Buckets ‘Beat the Frog’ amateur night\, which quickly became the best new comedy night in the North. As well as his reputation as a top-class circuit headliner and in-demand MC and host\, he has also performed regular TV warm up for the likes of Jonathan Ross\, John Bishop and Celebrity Juice. \nDan has also become a regular crowd pleaser\, and critically acclaimed success\, at The Edinburgh Festival Fringe\, having performed solo shows since 2008 at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe\, as well as at festivals in New Zealand. \n“Nightingale can make just about anything funny. He’s lightning-quick” - Time Out \n“Magnetic\, entertaining and wonderfully funny” - Three Weeks \n“Pretty damn funny” - Fest \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.\n\nBuy tickets:

SUMMARY:Darlington\, November 11th 2019
DESCRIPTION:Hilarity Bitesize New Act & New Material Night\, with Tony Cowards\, host Andy Fury & support\nShow details:\n \nTony Cowards\nTony is a rapidfire gag merchant with an arsenal full of one-liners\, for laughs-per-minute he's a tough act to beat! \nHis quick wit has made him a sought after act and compere by comedy clubs and promoters across the UK and even for gigs worldwide. Something of a Twitter sensation\, Tony's jokes turn up in all sorts of places\, from greetings cards to The Times newspaper\, even if you've never heard of him there's a good chance that you'll have laughed at one of his gags. \nTony’s likable ‘everyman’ character and wide ranging humour (mostly clean) means he is comfortable in front of any audience and is regularly booked for comedy nights for the military\, universities\, sports clubs\, festivals and after-dinner work. In July 2014\, Tony placed third in the English Comedian of the Year Competition. \n“Tony Cowards as the MC skilfully whipped the full house into a state of rapture in anticipation of the evening's special guest” - Three Weeks \n“The best joke writer around” - GQ \n“The Punosaurus” - The List \n“A beaut of a one-liner merchant” - LondonisFunny.com \n  \n \nAndy Fury\nDespite 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. \nWith 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. \n“An absolute genius of a comedian” - BBC \n“Brilliant... The next Pub Landlord of comedy” - Hexham Courant \n“A very funny man with a big future ahead of him” - Corby Radio \n  \nThis show will also feature support from several new acts\, and established acts performing new material. \n  \nNote: Line-ups are subject to change in extreme\, and unavoidable\, circumstances.\nShow may contain strong language and adult themes.\n\nBuy tickets:
