Tony Burgess has been making a living from this stand up comedy lark since his teens. An obsessive writer from an early age, flab free gags are the hallmarks of Tony’s scintillating sets. Whether it’s musings on the Madchester days of yore or surreal takes on contemporary family life, surrender to the onslaught of laughter will be your only option! All gags and routines come in Tony’s trademark Mancunian jackdaw delivery.
“Great, well crafted gags” The Times “Sharper than a Stanley knife” The Visitor
Chris Washington made his Edinburgh Fringe debut in 2017 with his self-produced show 'Dream Big (Within Reason)' after taking all his annual leave in his full-time job as a postman. The gamble paid off and Chris received a nomination for Best Newcomer despite having no management, promoter or PR. A feel-good underdog story which he describes as getting five numbers and the bonus ball on the comedy lottery.
★★★★★ One4Review ★★★★★ Three Weeks ★★★★ Times ★★★★ Chortle
Yorkshire’s Scott Bennett owes a certain amount of his success to Covid! As lock down decimated the UK entertainment industry Scott refused to cave in and Stand Up From The Shed was born. Every week, Scott wrote and performed a topical comedy show that was live streamed from (you guessed it) his garden shed! This was quickly picked up by BBC News, Sky News and Five Live, further increasing Scott’s fan base.
The return to normality has been even better for Scott. He made his debut appearance on BBC’s Live At The Apollo, numerous appearances on Radio 4, toured with John Bishop and won the coveted Best UK Stand Up 2021 award! 2022 saw Scott’s latest tour show ‘Great Scott’ take to the roads of the United Kingdom.
“A very funny man” Rob Brydon ★★★★ Chortle ★★★★ TV Bomb
The show comes complete with one act to be confirmed. Watch this space!
