SUMMARY:Sessay\, February 7th 2024
DESCRIPTION:Hilarity Bites Comedy Club feat. Steve Day\, Howard Walker\, and host Jon Pearson\nShow details:\n \nSteve Day\nSteve Day describes himself as Britains only deaf comedian\, and if there are any others then he hasn't heard. Actually there are a couple of others who have started since he wrote that joke\, but it's only a joke after all. \nFor the past dozen years Steve has been performing to huge laughter around the country and abroad - well\, they tell him the laughter was huge to humour him\, he doesn't know either way. \nMarried with five children (a fact nothing to do with not being able to hear the word 'No') Steve has been described as 'warm and witty' by the Scotsman and has received many other rave reviews whilst performing shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Chortle gave him five stars in 2007 for Deafy's Island Discs\, a show The Sunday Times called 'Funny and Moving'. \n“Revelatory and very funny” - The Guardian \n“Warm\, funny\, frank and thought-provoking” - The Scotsman \n“Wonderful” - Bath Chronicle \n  \n \nHoward Walker\nHirsute\, hospitable\, and h-engaging\, Howard hails from Yorkshire and proffers oodles of warmth with observations on everyday life. Comedy Cellar New Act Award winner and Hilarity Bites New Act of the Year finalist\, with captivating stories he travels the UK to charm and entertain\, and find the answer to the age old question; where can you find free parking after 6? \nAn imaginative storyteller\, with a good sense of humour\, he likes romantic walks on the beach\, dining out\, and likes to take any opportunity to pretend he's filling out an online dating profile. \n“A natural stage presence\, an instantly amenable demeanour\, inventive imagery and the best comedic use of a Belgian place name even the most ardent chuckle chaser will ever hear” - Stagefright Comedy \n“Howard Walker's oddly hilarious observations bring something different to any comedy programme” - Buzz Comedy \n“You almost felt as if you had gone over to a friend’s house and met his really witty mate that could entertain you all night with human observations of the world” - www.ladiestakeon.co.uk \n  \n \nJon Pearson\nJon began standup comedy in 2010\, with his first performance at Birmingham’s Highlight Comedy Club. Cut to the present and Jon has become a regular face on the circuit\, performing at prestigious clubs such as The Glee\, The Boat Show & The Comedy Store\, Jon’s career has even taken him overseas with performances in Spain\, Norway and even as far away as Wigan (it is like being on another planet). \nJon is also a familiar face on at comedy festivals across the UK having taken three solo shows to the Leicester\, Nottingham & Edinburgh festivals with the highlight of the all coming in the form of a sold out show at his home town Melton Theatre in Melton Mowbray. \nJon has also provided tour support for Darren Harriot on his UK 2018/2019 tour and Lucy Porter on her UK 2017 tour. Jon’s laid back storytelling has audiences hanging on his every word. With tales based around his own life experiences\, his anecdotes are relatable and certain to have audiences in hysterics. \n“Very tall and hugely funny” - Lucy Porter \n“Brilliant” - Shropshire Star \n“A natural ability for working an audience” - EdFringeReview.com \n  \nNote: Line-ups are subject to change in extreme\, and unavoidable\, circumstances.\nShow may contain strong language and adult themes.\n  \n\nTimings\nDoors open: 7pm\nShow starts: 7:30pm \n\nBuy tickets:\nTickets for this show are £10 each and can be bought from the link below\, or contact the venue directly.

A supremely confident compere and seasoned corporate host\, Roger is happy to improvise freely with a crowd and is at great ease bantering with an audience\, but has no shortage of first class observational material in his armoury. \nAs one of the most sought after acts on the comedy circuit\, Roger headlines at all the major comedy venues and has performed extensively throughout the United Kingdom and Internationally\, most recently performing in Belgium\, The Netherlands\, South Africa\, China\, Singapore\, Tokyo and the Middle East. He has also featured on major national tours of the UK sponsored by Hooch and J2O. \nA fine topical writer and performer\, and master of sharp observational comedy\, Roger is a regular member of the prestigious and critically acclaimed ‘Cutting Edge’ team at the London Comedy Store. \n“unfailingly entertaining and skilfully able to pull punchlines\, seemingly\, out of thin air” - Chortle \n“his laconic delivery shields an engaging persona and an enquiring mind” - The Guardian \n  \n \nCarl Jones\nMidlands comic Carl Jones first hit the circuit in 2011\, winning the Nottingham Comedy Festival Best Newcomer in his first handful of gigs.

His natural comic story-telling ability had them hanging on every word” - Hot Water Comedy \n“From the moment he came to the microphone\, he made the audience feel at home.
