SUMMARY:Darlington\, June 4th 2022
DESCRIPTION:Hilarity Bites Comedy Club feat. Tez Ilyas\, Liam Farrelly\, and host Andy Fury\nShow details:\n \nTez Ilyas\nHost of Channel 4's The Tez O’Clock ShowBBC New Talent Hot List 2017Chortle Best Breakthrough Act Nominee 2017\nTez Ilyas hit the ground running. In his first three years as a stand up\, he found himself in no less than eight competition finals including the prestigious BBC New Comedy Award and Leicester Mercury New Comedian of the Year. In 2015\, Tez achieved phenomenal success with his debut stand up hour TEZ Talks. A sell out run at the Soho Theatre and his own BBC Radio 4 series based on the show followed\, with a second series released in 2018 and a third already commissioned. \nIn 2016\, his highly anticipated follow up show\, Made in Britain\, went on to sell out every single performance (including extra shows) at the Edinburgh Fringe and gained spectacular critical acclaim\, with a smash hit nationwide tour in 2017. \nHis third show\, Teztify\, once again delivered a spectacularly powerful\, provocative and brilliantly funny hour of topical stand up\, delivering to packed out audiences night after night\, followed in 2018 by his second sell-out nationwide tour. \nTez is one of the stars of hit sitcom Man Like Mobeen (BBC Three) and has appeared on Live at the Apollo (BBC One)\, Mock the Week (BBC Two)\, The Last Leg (C4)\, Live From the BBC (BBC Two)\, Live from the Comedy Store (Comedy Central)\, Kevin Hart’s Live from Montreal (LOL Network)\, Virtually Famous (E4)\, The Now Show (BBC Radio 4) and made a brand new quiz show pilot for Vice. \n“Tez Ilyas’s political stand-up is candyfloss with a razorblade inside: sweet and familiar at first\, then shockingly\, painfully sharp. It’s the kind of manoeuvre that takes serious talent to pull off” - ★★★★ - The Telegraph \n“Ilyas has a slickness more reminiscent of US comics\, and the gags to back it up\, though his most prized asset could yet be his bold\, subversive streak” - ★★★★ - The Guardian \n“Radiantly entertaining” - ★★★★ - The Times \n  \n \nLiam Farrelly\n2021 Scottish Comedian of the Year - Winner2021 Beat the Frog World Series - Winner2021 BBC New Comedy Award - Finalist\nLiam Farrelly is a 21-year-old up-and-coming Scottish comedian from Paisley\, who started performing stand-up aged 17 whilst still in High School and who immediately went into comedy full-time after graduating. \nA meteoric rise through the ranks has seen him nominated for and winning a raft of awards\, have a guest acting role on BBC Scotland’s Scot Squad (S4E2\, 2018) and perform at the UK’s best and most prestigious comedy clubs\, including Scotland’s The Stand\, Monkey Barrel\, Liverpool’s Hot Water Comedy Club and both the London and Manchester Comedy Stores—all barely a year after first setting foot on a stage. \nIn 2021\, BBC Scotland commissioned him to write and produce an episode of their Short Stuff. Already a charismatic powerhouse on stage\, Liam’s perfect timing and brilliant material is underpinned by a dry and understated delivery\, flawlessly landing multiple punchlines with breathtaking ease. \n“Frighteningly young first act Liam Farrelly is going to have to get used to the Kevin Bridges comparisons or have elocution lessons... it was apparent that this was a young man with natural storytelling talent... Impressive stuff” - Beyond the Joke \n“Self-referential asides and personal material... there’s a funny and interesting spark here” - Chortle \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 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 should be booked in the group size that you wish to sit in.
