MC – RYAN McDONNELL
“A candid and incisive brand of comedy” – The Irish Post
Belfast boy Ryan McDonnell is no stranger to laughs in his home town and is currently building up quite a reputation for himself on the UK comedy circuit. He interjects a sharp wit and Irish charm in his observation of everyday life. Sometimes bizarre, often dark he’ll guide you on a unique journey through the world as he sees it. Ryan was a runner up in the 2009 Amused Moose Laugh Off final in Edinburgh and a 2008 Magners Comedy Awards finalist.
OPENING –GERRY K
The Bill (ITV), Angelo’s (ITV)
Anecdotal, observational and refreshingly honest, Gerry K first hit the stage in 2003 and has raised the roof with laughter ever since. An energetic and likeable personality, Gerry lays claim to winning; The Comedy Store's 'King Gong', Metrolife Comedy Newcomer, and The Comedy Cafe’s Best Newcomer Awards. Following recent successes, Gerry's performed several headline spots and now performs regularly at many corporate events. Gerry’s even hosted the football forum with Jeff Stelling and Rodney Marsh for Zoo Magazine.
HEADLINE – JOHN NEWTON
A Truly Globetrotting Comedian: Abu Dhabi, Alicante, Amsterdam, Bahrain, Barcelona, Burma, The Caribbean, The Channel Islands, Dubai, Estonia, Hamburg, Ireland, Kenya, Munich, Russia, Stockholm & More
The first thing that strikes you about John Newton is that there is nothing massively striking about him. A relatively new face on the stand-up circuit, it didn’t take John Newton long to find his feet. With material by the spoonful ready to lead people on a series of whimsical journeys, he has even the hardest audiences spellbound by his penetrating narratives. Add to this some subtle and often sublimely tasteless comedy, and you have the basis for a strange, but oh so amusing night out. You might even find yourself contemplating such obscure subjects as the socio-economic stability of Thomas the Tank Engine’s island home, which as any parent will tell you, is very strange place indeed.
