Line Up:

MC Colin Manford

Colin Manford is a North West based comedian who also happens to be Jason’s little brother!

An accomplished writer, actor and presenter who just loves to tell stories from his own unique perspective, all areas covered from his failed relationships to his weird and wonderful family life and more. No-holds barred comedy at its finest.

A very strong MC who can connect with any audience and can adapt to any situation, enjoying a growing reputation which has seen him booked not only in countries such as The Czech Republic, Croatia, Slovenia, Malta and Romania but also the UKs top clubs.
He has written for 8 Out of 10 Cats and Walk on the Wild Side and his debut one man show had 2 sell out nights at the 2010 Manchester Comedy Festival.
 
Tales of student and family life. A funny guy. Holding his own on stage he bridges the gaps between the generations.
Mirth on Monday 
Naturally and effortlessly funny.

Sam Harland

After surviving two rehabs, various detention centres and a childhood on the streets of Hull, Sam draws on his wealth of experience to bring you a humorously cynical (yet optimistic) slant on life. Sharp witted and charismatic, Sam has been performing stand-up since 2006 a real audience pleaser.

“An exciting talent with a big personality, an East Coast equivalent of Peter Kaye” Buzz Comedy 2008
Delivers his material like a pro, timing and emphasis note perfect”
Chortle 2009

Paul F Taylor
 
A one of a kind comedian. An instantly watchable performer, whilst onstage he exhibits a lost playful vulnerability. This coupled with his hilarious and surreal observations never fails to leave audiences crying with laughter and gasping for air. Paul is a superb writer with a keen eye for the absurd in everyday life, he creates wickedly funny and astute observational comedy which is totally captivating and utterly hilarious.

‘Brilliantly funny nonsense’ ★★★★ The List 
‘Beguiles those of us with a weakness for whimsy’ ★★★★ Metro

Dave Williams

Dave Williams is a top quality circuit comedian whose crisp one-liners and surreal nonsense have earned him headline slots at some of the countries most prestigious comedy clubs.

Dave has been a full-time comedian since 1998 and while he hasn’t become famous, nor has he starved to death, so he must be OK at this!

His solo shows at the Edinburgh Fringe combined stand-up and character comedy and were a smash hit. The first was described as “a fantastic solo Fringe debut” by The List. The follow-up was reviewed as “a wonderful piece” and included guest interviews with Ross Noble, Adam Bloom, Adam Hills and many others.
 
Inspired one-liners punctuated with surreal nonsense.
The Scotsman 
A fine, original comic mind…always surprising the audience with his wit.
