CFT Lates: Comedy Night

Fri 17 Jan

 

We have two fantastic acts, plus comedy compere Paul Cox, so strap in for a punchline-tastic evening.

 

Featuring Samantha Day award-winning comedian, finalist for the Not So New Comedian of the Year (2024) and chosen as New Comedian of the Year at the Southport Comedy Festival (2022).

The real deal, a fresh voice tempered by a life full of square peg experience.

Nick Page, English Comedian of the Year

And Jacob Hawley, a multi-award-winning stand-up, writer and performer. He has performed stand-up on The Russell Howard Hour and Secrets of The Irish Comedy Circuit.
 

A down to earth talent who's got it in spades, it's an impressive, strong debut show that makes it feel like he's already been doing this for years.
