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
Brennan Reece is a working class wordsmith, a stand up, a storyteller and a self-confessed mummy’s boy. His boyish cheeks have recently cropped up on ‘Survival Of The Fittest’, ‘The Stand Up Sketch Show’ and ‘Live At The Comedy Store‘. His stint on ‘Top Gear‘ has now racked up six million views. A true Northern voice with family close to his heart. Your mum is going to love him! Not like that, you dirty little perv.
“Absolutely incredible” Phoebe Waller-Bridge ‘Beautiful, raucous and touching‘ The Independent
MC Alex Boardman cut his comedic teeth on the burgeoning Manchester scene with sets at the Frog & Bucket often followed by an all nighter at The Hacienda! Family life may have tempered the inner wild child but it’s certainly added to both the maturity and the relatability of his stand up. A gifted gag smith, Alex writes for a lot of big names and TV shows including John Bishop, A Question Of Sport and many we’re not allowed to say!
“A great comic” Sarah Millican “Double funny” Shaun Ryder
