SUMMARY:Ripon\, September 2nd 2025
DESCRIPTION:Hilarity Bites Comedy Club feat. Freddy Quinne\, Tom Taylor\, and host Pete Otway\nShow details:\n \nFreddy Quinne\nCo-host of the hugely popular 'Dead Men Talking' podcast\, award-winning comedian Freddy Quinne is a regular at many of the biggest and best comedy clubs in the country where he performs his shamelessly opinionated\, no-holds-barred stand up. He is known for his frank approach and often brutal punchlines\, covering everything from topical news to universal truths. \nHis Amazon Prime comedy special Quite The Catch has had over half a million views. He also has hours of online footage from shows across the world\, with clips racking up millions of streams on Facebook and YouTube. \nIn 2014 Freddy was MC for the late show for the Big Value Show at the Edinburgh Fringe\, one of the most prestigious showcases at the festival\, and he returned to the Fringe in 2015\, where he hosted the AAA Comedy Showcase at the Pleasance Courtyard.  \nFreddy's willingness to break away from his set and involve the crowd leads for an engaging and memorable set backed up with frantic energy and raw emotion. \n“Uncompromising... a natural comic with near perfect timing” - The Skinny \n“The hilarious Freddy Quinne managed to quieten the two worst hecklers with one perfectly judged line” - eFestivals \n“Uniquely Northern observational humour” - Lancashire Evening Post \n  \n \nTom Taylor\n2015 Yorkshire Comedian of the Year\nMulti-award winning comedian Tom Taylor has received high praise from audiences and critics alike. His unique brand of musical comedy is smart and silly in equal measure and he can boast an impressive stock of quirky\, and very funny\, musical one-liners. \nIn 2013 Tom reached the final of the prestigious So You Think You're Funny? competition\, previously won by Dylan Moran\, Lee Mack and Peter Kay. In 2014\, he reached the final of the Hobgoblin Comedy Award and\, the following year\, won the inaugural Great Yorkshire Fringe New Comedian of the Year competition. \nRecently\, Tom has performed on Radio 2 and Radio 4 Extra as part of the BBC Radio New Comedy Award and has supported Simon Munnery on tour. \n“His brand of nervous\, neurotic musical comedy is an absolute delight” - The Skinny \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  \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.

SUMMARY:Ripon\, September 30th 2025
DESCRIPTION:Hilarity Bites Comedy Club feat. George Zach\, Jacob Nussey\, and host Lee Kyle\nShow details:\n \nGeorge Zach\nGeorge moved from Greece to study Biochemistry in Newcastle Upon Tyne and\, in doing so\, avoided joining the Greek army for his national service. He discovered stand-up soon after and has gone to sell out his show Greek Tragedy at the Melbourne Comedy Festival\, and support Luisa Omielan on her Am I Right Ladies tour. Recent BBC One appearances include the One Show and numerous appearances on This Week\, discussing the Greek financial crisis. \nFortunately for George it turned out that he has quite the grasp of the English language\, and also the fine art of comedy\, including his witty observations on dating Geordie lasses and helpful translations of everyday Geordie phrases. \n“A charismatic raconteur... his story not only elicits laughter but is also\, at times\, poignant and moving” - ★★★★ – The Wee Review \n“Truly terrific” - Melbourne Herald \n“Huge Laughs\, George is clearly a very funny guy” - Broadway Baby \n  \n \nJacob Nussey\nJacob Nussey unassumingly draws in audiences with his deadpan style\, sharp jokes\, and ill-fated anecdotes with clever punchlines. \nJacob quickly established himself on the comedy circuit\, after winning Bury Met Comedian of the Year and West Didsbury Comedy Festival New Act of the Year\, having previously reaching the semi-finals of British Comedian of the Year\, and So You Think You’re Funny. \nJacob was named by Chortle as one to watch for 2023. He’s seriously funny and well worth seeing in person! \n“Offbeat stories with an air of resigned indifference which is highly effective” - Chortle \n“Insanely funny\, he'll be a household name before you know it” - Skiddle \n“Hilariously nonchalant” - Broadway World \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.
