Front Tier Comedy, Scotland's newest comedy club, bringing together the best in professional comedian headliners as well as the best up and coming acts on the Scottish comedy scene. This month we hit Neilston and we have an amazing line up featuring Rev Obadiah Steppenwolfe (Mock the Week) and Britain's Got Talent Star Cubby.
The loud-mouthed bible-bashing alter-ego of former teacher Jim Muir simply demands attention with his in-your-face evangelical preaching. The larger-than-life act is an impressive performance that can blow an audience away with the power of personality.
The Reverend Obadiah brings his love of heavy metal music and hot-tub bible readings to the Edinburgh Fringe 2013, ever keen to expand his flock. Join your fellow flock and special guest sinners for an hour of no-holds-barred God-fearing, soul-saving and unsolicited sexual confessions.
The Reverend has taken to spreading the word of the Lord on the Radio with his weekly Saints & Sinners round up on Kerrang’s breakfast show and also the Devil’s Own Television, as well as around comedy clubs all over the UK. He was a regular on all 4 series of BBC’s Live Floor Show, for which he was nominated for Scottish BAFTA’S best newcomer award. His 2003 Edinburgh Fringe double-headline show with Frankie Boyle provoked massive, diverse reactions and was simultaneously hailed as the most exciting and original as well as the most offensive and dangerous show on the Fringe. The Reverend’s debut solo Edinburgh Festival Show, What Would Charlie Sheen Do? received 5 star rave reviews. The Reverend’s alter-ego Jim Muir wrote on 2 series of the Channel 4 Jimmy Carr vehicle, Distraction and subsequently 8 Out Of 10 Cats as well as for BBC Two’s Mock The Week. Jim continued to be a key writer for Boyle’s own projects on and off-screen until 2012 when his own commitments took over.
Opening the show is Britain's Got Talent star Cubby! Come watch as blind comic Cubby attempts to take the stage! Unlike his glasses his performance will be a fantastically worthwhile spectacle! Sit back and enjoy as this Britains Got Talent contestant delivers an energetic performance full of striking one liners, hilarious stories and views on his life experiences. Do not miss it. You are guaranteed to have a blinder!
