Still loads of comedy to giggle at!

Blog posted:30 November 2010

Brendon Burns and Hal Cruttenden will be here this week to entertain and amuse you, the perfect pick-me-up if you missed out on Russell Howard tickets and are fed up with snow (flipping snow…)

Brendon’s new and spectacularly titled show “Y’Know, Love ‘n’ God ‘n’ Metaphysics ‘n’ Shit” is here on Friday 3 December at 8pm. A comic love letter, and a preamble through the Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner’s brilliantly insane mind, this show has a giant twist in its tail…as always, nothing is as it seems…Hilarious, heartbreaking…don’t miss it. Tickets are £14 or £12 concessions. Click HERE for more…

After an extremely busy 2009 supporting Rob Brydon on his sold out UK tour and a critically acclaimed performance on The Royal Variety Show, Hal Cruttenden is one of the UK’s fastest rising comedy stars and he is here to present his own unique comic vision. He’s angry! But he’s not sure why…
“A delightful surprise… warm-hearted, quick- witted observations about being a camp, middle class heterosexual.” The Daily Telegraph
