SUMMARY:Newton Aycliffe\, July 20th 2023
DESCRIPTION:Hilarity Bitesize New Act & New Material Night\, with Nick Doody\, Peter Brush\, host Aaron Twitchen & support\nShow details:\n \nNick Doody\nDave Gorman tour support\nNick Doody has been performing comedy since the 90s when\, as a student\, he got off to a pretty good start by supporting the legendary Bill Hicks\, at Bill's request. A little later\, Nick was a finalist in Channel 4's So You Think You're Funny? competition. \nSince then he has performed all over the world: Ireland\, France\, Spain\, Switzerland\, Germany\, The Netherlands\, Dubai\, United Arab Emirates\, Qatar\, Hong Kong\, Thailand\, Malaysia\, Estonia... You get the idea. He was the first British comedian to perform in Croatia. \nNick has appeared on various radio and TV shows\, and is also much in demand as a writer. He has penned jokes for Joan Rivers\, Lenny Henry\, Dame Edna Everage and an uncomfortable number of Mock The Week regulars. He was also the creator and head writer of Bigipedia\, a critically acclaimed Radio 4 show that broadcast in 2009 and 2011. \nIn 2006\, Nick performed his first solo Edinburgh Festival show\, Before He Kills Again. The show received rave reviews and sold out for the whole festival\, leading to a run at the Soho Theatre. Since then\, Nick has written and performed another six solo hours of stand-up\, including the most honest title ever to appear on a poster\, Look At This Massive Picture Of My Face. \n“All hail Nick Doody... true comedy gold: polished\, rich in material and a find among all the fools” - Metro \n“This is simply the best unadulterated\, gimmick-free hour of pure stand-up I’ve seen so far this Fringe” - Chortle \n“A no-nonsense stand up comic who is genuinely funny” - Three Weeks \n  \n \nPeter Brush\nA highly distinctive performer and deft writer of finely crafted jokes\, Peter Brush unassumingly takes the stage with his slight bespectacled frame and scruffy hair\, before consummately conquering it with an arsenal of razor sharp quirky one-liners and peerlessly original routines\, all delivered in an amusingly awkward fashion. \nPeter performs at all the major clubs across the UK\, as well as having done many of it’s biggest festivals\, he has also played shows in Switzerland\, Norway and Hungary. Formerly a BBC New Comedy Award finalist\, he has written for several BBC Radio 4 shows and was the support act for Alexei Sayle’s most recent tour. Other acts he has supported on tour include Jonathan Pie\, Jason Manford\, Fern Brady\, Arthur Smith and Paul Sinha. \n“compellingly hilarious... first-class gag writing... an original and achingly funny voice” - ★★★★½ - Chortle \n“I love Peter Brush\, what a comic” - Jason Manford \n“unique observations and connections that stand-ups crave” - The Guardian \n“He’s a great comic” - BBC Radio 4 Saturday Review \n  \n \nAaron Twitchen\nAaron Twitchen is a stand up\, actor\, aerialist\, and living stereotype. \nAs well as featuring on BBC Radio 4\, he was listed in Metro's top 5 RomComs and has provided tour support for Luisa Omielan. He has also been releasing his sketch series\, DiscoBlonde\, in weekly instalments\, and in its first six weeks it has enjoyed upwards of eighteen thousand views. \nAway from comedy\, Aaron has supported bands at music festivals\, and is an accomplished stage actor and improviser. Unusually\, he is also a trained circus act\, concentrating particularly on aerial skills and trapeze work\, which has allowed him to tour circus theatres throughout the country and teach young people. \n“Twitchen's a terrific host\, kind and self-deprecating with plenty of catty put-downs” - The Skinny \n“Twitchen is an assured stand-up and navigates both his material and his venue with style... He is a flexible improviser\, in tune with the spirit of live comedy” - Broadway Baby \n“Hilarious\, warm\, energetic and capable of busting some serious moves. Twitchen is a quadruple threat” - The Skinny \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\nTimings\nDoors open: 7pm\nShow starts: 7:30pm \n\nBuy tickets:\nTickets for this show are £10 per person\, with doors opening at 7pm and the show starting at 7:30pm. Tickets can be bought from the link below\, See Tickets\, TicketMaster\, Skiddle\, or contact the venue directly.
