SUMMARY:Ripon\, April 2nd 2024
DESCRIPTION:Hilarity Bites Comedy Club feat. Tom Houghton\, Tony Cowards\, and host Lee Kyle\nShow details:\n \nTom Houghton\nTom Houghton was previously 1/5th of comedy troupe "The Noise Next Door" and is now taking the comedy circuit by storm with his quick wit\, and charming persona. \nRegularly performing up and down the country and abroad - as well as touring the country in his own sell-out solo showss - you may even have caught him on Netflix's "The Circle"\, Channel Four's "First Dates Hotel"\, or at his sell-out debut Edinburgh Fringe show\, which went on tour in early 2018. Tom is also hugely popular on social media\, with millions of views across all platforms. \nStrap in and be prepared to have your funny bones tickled and your levels of decency questioned by one of the hottest acts around. \n“this unexpected tour de force warrants a 21-gun salute” - ★★★★ – The Daily Telegraph  \n“Please take my advice. Get a ticket today. Tomorrow may well be too late. A Star is Born” - ★★★★★ – One 4 Review  \n“The long awaited male answer to Bridget Jones made flesh” - ★★★★ – The Daily Telegraph  \n  \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 \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\, with doors opening at 7:30pm and the show starting at 8pm. Tickets can be bought from the link below\, See Tickets\, TicketMaster\, Skiddle\, or contact the venue directly.
