Big Beverley Comedy Night

Headlining – Lois Mills

Lois is a great comedy character actor, winner of the prestigious Leicester Square Theatre (London) ‘Sketch Off’ competition and has toured her own show ‘WEIRDO’. Her characters are fabulously funny, charming and outrageous. Lois is an absolute hoot. AND – she’s from Beverley!

“She made a virtue of a the kind of behaviour that would get you sectioned without stage lights and a microphone” – Julia Chamberlain for Chortle

“The decidedly strange Lois Mills, who started off weird and… got weirder” – Bruce Dessau for Beyond The Joke

Getting the show off to a cracking start is the hilarious Kyle Kraze from Middlesborough.

“An irrepressible, robust, charming, non-stop, bundle of fun”

Also calling in at the Salon are even more funny people – Jack Kelly, who runs the Laughienda Comedy Club in Manchester (winner of the North West Comedy Awards 2022), and Daniel Lythe who runs the Top Notch Comedy in Chesterfield, is a radio presenter and podcaster.

Big Beverley Comedy Night

Beverley’s regular Comedy Night is here!

Join in the fun with some of the country’s great up and coming comedians, from this region and beyond.

Headlining
Kelli! Taylor

Kelli! is in demand around the country, having recently performed alongside the legendary Arthur Smith, Sean Walsh and Justin Moorhouse. This life-style guru and hairdresser to the stars will sort your life out, advise on family life and, if you’re really lucky, enter your portal and give unsolicited advice about your clothes and general appearance from a dead relative. With all this to give, she doesn’t know why she isn’t already a Dame.

Kelli! Taylor is an absolute scream.

Live Naked Idiots

They should be headlining really, but Kelli! Taylor wouldn’t allow it.
The legendary anarchic sketch, song and comedy mayhem group will inflict us with their idiocy, stupid costumes, clever literary and cultural allusions and…..idiocy.

You can’t afford to miss this level of stupidity – it’s brilliant!

Justina Seselskaite

From Lithuania and Manchester, Justina is a relative newcomer to the comedy circuits, but is definitely on the way up. She is lovely, charming, absolutely entertaining – and very funny!
Shortlisted BBC new comedy awards 2021
Winner British Comedy Guide talent awards 2021

Ryan Kenny

Also from Manchester, Ryan Kenny is going down a storm with his unique approach to life. His style is…well…you’ll probably want to take him home with you – but you can’t.
“a very funny young man’ ‘brilliant new talent”

And hosting the night – Rich Long

“completely up for it, highly energetic, engaging and funny”
“a natural talent – can deliver a joke with great timing”
“Richard Long’s imagination knows no bounds”

Henning Wehn

Henning Wehn – It’ll All Come Out In The Wash

Watch German Comedy Ambassador Henning Wehn give everything a good rinse and witness him wring sense out of the nonsensical in this unbiased look at how we dealt with a certain virus.

The star of BBC shows ‘Have I Got News For You’, ‘Would I Lie To You’, ‘Live At The Apollo’, and Channel 4’s ‘8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown’ has no agenda, he just happens to be always spot on.

It’s a curse.

“A master at using his outsider status. Dazzlingly funny.” – The Times

“He’s German but he means well.” – some bloke on Twitter

“Cor blimey.” – The Guardian

Jerry Sadowitz

Jerry Sadowitz is an American-born Scottish stand-up comedian and magician.

Jerry Sadowitz returns with his whacky impressions of Greta Thunberg, Frankie Boyle and deep vein thrombosis. He also promises to do less hate-fuelled swearing and focus more on faux liberal pish in order to appeal to the middle class and their disposable income and personalities.

“Please note that I might just do card tricks and say NOTHING for a whole hour, or I might just do the usual ‘screaming fascist’ schtick. Or both. Patrons may wish to drink alcohol pre-show to avoid boredom, embarrassment, and guilt.”

Tom Allen Completely

“Sharp badinage, sympathetic personal material and – not least – his abundant skills as a raconteur and host.” – The Guardian

“A riotous rollercoaster of a set from a skillful stand-up perched on the cusp of major fame” – The Evening Standard

“A neatly judged mix of realism and ripe exaggeration delivered at a frantically camp pace.” – The Times

Tom Stade: Natural Born Killer

The legendary Canadian superstar returns with a killer new hour!

A master of his craft; unabashed and mischievous with an innate ability to connect to audiences. This is a  show for iGens, Millennials, Gen X’s, Baby Boomers and beyond.

Join Tom as he toys with the complexities of our ever-changing world; muses on societal conundrums and navigates his way around progressiveness and pronouns – not to mention 27 years of marriage and adult kids who refuse to respect him (and like to remind him just how dumb they think he is).

Serially hilarious, he’s wowed sell-out audiences across the UK for the past two decades and remains one of the most compelling and instinctive stand-ups around.

Dave Gorman Powerpoint To The People

Dave Gorman, the man behind Dave TV’s hit show Modern Life Is Goodish as well as Are You Dave Gorman? and Googlewhack Adventure, is back with a brand new live show, Powerpoint To The People

The ‘high priest of the comedy Powerpoint talk’ (The Times) is touring again – as much as anything to demonstrate that a powerpoint presentation doesn’t have to involve a man in a grey suit standing behind a lectern and saying ‘next slide please’. We’ve all had enough of that, so let’s put it all behind us and never speak of it again – there are far more important things to analyse. Well… they’re more important in Dave’s head anyway.
