What’s more\, when they get to Reeth they’re doing a show! \nJoin them and friends for a great night of sore-footed comedy. \n  \n  \n  \n \nRob Deering\nRob Deering performs stand-up comedy with music\, using a guitar\, a loop pedal and his voice to create impressive rock and pop soundscapes – and do jokes\, of course. Along with being one of the most in-demand headliners on the UK circuit\, he’s toured nationally and performed solo shows at the Edinburgh Fringe many times since starting out in comedy in the year 2000. \nRob has performed throughout the world\, in shows from the Middle East to Melbourne\, Shanghai to the South of France\, and he has appeared on any number of Radio and TV shows since starting out on 99 Things To Do Before You Die\, most recently winning Celebrity Mastermind on BBC One. \n“An evening in his company is nothing less than a joy” - The Independent on Sunday \n“A highly impressive one-man soundscape powered mainly by energy and excellent guitar skills” - The Scotsman \n“Ingenious and hilarious” - The Guardian \n  \n \nPaul Tonkinson\nA sensational live performer\, Yorkshire man\, marathon runner and former (double award-winning) Time Out Comedian of the Year\, Paul Tonkinson has long upheld his esteemed reputation as one of the finest stand-ups the UK has to offer. With a unique and distinctive style\, Tonkinson is noted for his effervescent physicality and skillful impressions\, which bring alive exuberant\, tender comic reflections on love\, family and the day-to-day idiosyncrasies of 21st century living. A plethora of first class material\, combined with tremendous charm and irrepressible\, infectious energy make for quite a formidable talent. \nAfter many years of storming the circuit\, and much badgering from fellow professionals\, he took to the road in 2012 with his eagerly anticipated debut tour: Paul Tonkinson; Fancy Man. The tour took in 50 dates across the UK\, and gave audiences the opportunity to experience the full Tonkinson phenomena in all it’s glory. \nFollowing his solo tour\, he was given the opportunity to play to a wider audience\, joining the mighty Michael McIntyre as a special guest on live shows around the UK. In 2013 he had the honour of joining Michael as a special guest on his global arena tour; playing to millions across the globe\, as far and wide as Australia\, New Zealand\, Norway\, Dubai\, Singapore and Hong Kong. Paul joined Michael again in 2015 as special guest on the Happy & Glorious Tour; playing to sold-out crowds in arenas across the UK. \n“Excellent... extremely talented... brilliant” - Time Out \n“Hilarious\, nobody makes me laugh like Paul Tonkinson…go see him!" - Michael McIntyre \n“Watching Tonkinson storm is one of the best sights in comedy. It’s like watching somebody fly" - Sean Walsh \n  \n \nPete Otway\nSince starting to perform in 2010\, Pete Otway has quickly gained momentum\, establishing himself as an extremely strong new act. As comfortable and confident as an MC as he is an act\, he is booked regularly to do both\, and was a recent finalist in the 2012 BBC New Comedy Awards. \nWith an affable and conversational style\, mixed with an energetic stage manner and original writing\, Pete is quickly making a name for himself on the UK circuit\, and is certainly one to watch. \n “Devastatingly funny” - Chortle \n“Amiable\, cheeky classic stand-up” - Liverpool Echo \n“An amazing comedy talent\, and we are making sure we are making sure we follow his every move in his ever rising career” - Crispy Comedy Club \n  \n \nElaine Robertson\nWith a surreal eye for observational comedy and keen knack for audience interaction\, Elaine has been described as ‘Laugh out loud’\, ‘Natural\, effortless and off-the-cuff (The Cherwell) and a ‘Brilliant wit and comedic talent’ (Ed Fringe Review). \nIn 2022 Elaine was a Regional Finalist for BBC New Comedian of the Year. \n“I’ve been doing comedy for over 20 years and it’s very rare that I see someone who was born to do it. Elaine is one such person. effortlessly hilarious with original material I wish I’d thought of myself. If she doesn’t do well it’s to the detriment of comedy” - Matt Reed \n“A huge personality\, Elaine has a quality that is very rare in new comedians\, that being the ability to ad-lib and go with wherever the gig takes her. She's good now\, very good in fact but she could well develop into a truly special comic” - Felt Nowt Comedy \n“Laugh out loud\, natural\, effortless and off-the-cuff” - The Cherwell \n\nTimings\nDoors open: 7pm\nShow starts: 8pm \n\nBuy tickets:\nTickets for this show are £15 each\, with doors opening at 7pm and the show starting at 8pm. \nTickets can be bought from the link below\, See Tickets\, TicketMaster\, or Skiddle.
