Who are you?
I’m a comic who gigs all over the country up to 4 times a week. Last year I was FHM's Stand Up Hero show on ITV4.

What’s your show about?
Have you seen the film The Truman Show? I’m convinced my life is a modified version of it, due to the fact my life seems too fooked up for some of the stuff not to be staged!
I was standing up on a beach once and a random seagull flew into my head and knocked me unconscious. I became an alcoholic at the age of 21, and my dad currently has a male Greek lover!

Is this the first time you’ve played in Manchester?
I’ve gigged in Manchester quite a bit (if truth be told, I’m quite fond of the place.) It is my first time at the Manchester Comedy Festival though so am looking forward to get on it like sonic!

How long have you been doing comedy?
Since 2007.

What are the 3 funniest words in the English language?
Girth, Taxidermist (because it’s nothing to do with taxi’s) and Kumquat.

What’s your best feature?
My nipples! They’re wonderful… Like little badger noses!

Anything else we need to know?
I’ve recently taken up karate… I got into a lot of trouble for chopping my mum in the head.

Show starts at 7PM and is approximately 1 hour long.
Tickets are £5.
