SUMMARY:Peterlee\, February 3rd 2023
DESCRIPTION:Hilarity Bites Comedy Club feat. David Hadingham\, Stephanie Laing & host Lee Kyle\nShow details:\n \nDavid Hadingham\nLike a mad Phil Daniels\, Dave Hadingham is a bulldog of a comedian\, and the animal allegories don't stop there. In an affectionately\, snarling\, ranting and raving set\, Dave is not afraid to make you laugh about anything (remember the dogs). \nAt his best in the live arena\, Dave has been a professional comic since May 1996. Intense and anecdotal\, he keeps audiences hooked right up to the last punchline as he presents his unique and often warped view of everyday life. \nThis gravel-voiced comic combines supremely controlled delivery with inimitable facial contortions as he cracks some of the best handmade gags in the business. \nDave is a highly-regarded regular on the nationwide comedy circuit\, headlining at all of the biggest clubs in the UK and also performing at resorts across Europe. \n“ranting and raving comic genius” - The Guardian \n“Hilariously funny with notable precision and charisma” - The Scotsman \n  \n \nStephanie Laing\nGoofy and peculiar\, Stephanie Laing’s comedy is partway between the needy oddness of Maria Bamford and the upbeat affability of Josie Long. Her material is a mix of silliness\, filth and unusual observations\, underpinned by a disarming honesty which makes her seem charmingly vulnerable. \nA regular on the circuit Stephanie has also become a stalwart of comedy festivals across the country having appeared at Brighton Fringe\, Leicester Comedy Festival\, York Comedy Festival\, Bath Comedy Festival\, Women in Comedy Festival as well as appearing at the Edinburgh Fringe every year since 2010. Not content with just performing in the UK Stephanie has also appeared at UCB in New York & The Laugh Factory in L.A. \nMost recently in 2018 Stephanie took her solo show ‘Mad About The Boy’ to the Melbourne\, Adelaide & Perth comedy festivals. \n“Laing is a jovial\, baby faced performer who comes across as utterly unencumbered\, so it doesn’t especially feel like adult humour when it plainly is... Laing has a Sarah Millican-esque appeal” - Chortle \n“Disgusting and delightful in equal measure. She is definitely one to watch” - Three Weeks \n“Gloriously silly … wonderfully unpretentious” - Broadway Baby \n  \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\nTimings\nDoors open: 7:30pm\nShow starts: 8pm \n\nBuy tickets:\nTickets for this show are £10 per person and are available to buy online from TicketSource. Tickets are also available in person or by telephone from Peterlee Pavilion (0191 5869957) or Shotton Hall Banqueting Suites (0191 5862491).

SUMMARY:Bishop Auckland\, February 17th 2023
DESCRIPTION:Hilarity Bites Comedy Club feat. Alun Cochrane\, Sian Davies\, and host Lee Kyle\nShow details:\n \nAlun Cochrane\nYou'll know Alun Cochrane from TV\, radio\, and being one of the best stand-ups in the UK. \nAlun Cochrane is a no-nonsense comedian who specialises in funny nonsense. Much of his comedy begins simply as something he’s seen\, heard or felt in his own life\, or in the street\, or the kitchen\, or anywhere\, and from that it blossoms into a highly amusing anecdote or a strange flight of fancy. \nAlun has several television appearances to his name\, most recently Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow\, and Dave's One Night Stand\, but he's also often seen on Have I Got News For You\, 8 Out of 10 Cats\, Mock The Week\, and has appeared on Soccer A.M and Live At The Comedy Store. \nAlun’s dulcet tones can also be heard frequently on BBC Radio 4 on Alun Cochrane’s Fun House\, Just A Minute\, Dilemma and The Now Show\, whilst Alun is also affectionately known as the Cockerel on Absolute Radio's Frank Skinner Show. \n“Cochrane’s dour and grumpy onstage persona is allied to a real craft and creativity in his writing\, yielding results that satisfy both the comedy purists and those who simply want big belly laughs on a night out” - The Guardian \n“A master storyteller\, holding the audience before dropping an exploding but simple punchline...” - Metro \n“Alun Cochrane's ability to make the little things in life a comedy goldmine is phenomenal” - Chortle \n  \nReplacing Pete Selwood:\n \nSian Davies\nSian Davies is a stand up comedian\, MC\, presenter\, and comedy writer based in the north west of England. \nShe won the Hilarity Bites New Act of the Year competition in 2018\, and was a finalist in Nando’s New Comedian and Harrogate Theatre Comedian of the Year competitions in 2017. She was also a northern finalist of the Funny Women stage award 2018\, and selected to take part in the prestigious Circuit Breakers showcase at the Leicester Comedy Festival. \nSian took two compilation shows to the 2018 Edinburgh Fringe which were both well recieved and an unprecedented success. Comedy Queers\, a late night LGBTQIA+ showcase which sold out almost every night of the festival and Best in Class\, a crowd funded profit sharing show featuring working class comedians which attracted huge media attention and earned several 4 star reviews. \nAway from stand-up\, Sian has written for 'Newsjack' on BBC Radio 4 Extra\, and had sketches featured on 'And Then She Said A Funny Thing' live performance podcast. \n“Excellent compere” - The Scotsman \n“Sharp and focused... fantastic ability as a comedian and compere” - ★★★★ - Backstage on the Fringe \n“Warm hearted and engaging comedy” - ★★★★ - Deadline News \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.
