Resident host DAN NIGHTINGALE introduces double headliners PAUL TONKINSON and DAVE FULTON.
PAUL TONKINSON is a sensational live performer, Yorkshire man, marathon runner and former (double award-winning) Time Out Comedian of the Year. He’s long upheld his esteemed reputation as one of the finest stand-ups the UK has to offer. With a unique and distinctive style, Tonkinson is noted for his effervescent physicality and skillful impressions, which bring alive exuberant, tender comic reflections on love, family and the day-to-day idiosyncrasies of 21st century living. As seen on BBC One’s Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow.
DAVE FULTON has a deceptively laid back stage manner that disguises a raw aggression. This is unmissable comedy from one of the most dynamic and innovative comedians on the comedy circuit. His mother would never have thought it possible from someone who holds a Masters in Music Composition. You’ll have spotted Dave on Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Steve Coogan’s Saxondale, BBC One’s The Stand Up Show and Channel 5’s The Comedy Store. He’s also presented a feature for Newsnight on American culture.
DAN NIGHTINGALE is widely regarded as one of the best performers working on the comedy circuit today. Mixing fiendishly accurate observation with energetic characterisations and killer punch lines, his comedy is original, playful, intelligent, poignant and exciting; sometimes ridiculous… but always hilarious. As well as being a top-class circuit headliner and in-demand MC, he has also performed regular TV warm up for the likes of Jonathan Ross, John Bishop and Celebrity Juice.
