Greetings for October!!!!

Firstly..

How good was Nick Doody last month eh? Thankyou to everyone who came, amazing that we were busier than the Glee Club.. We're proud..

Now.. For OCTOBER 10th.. ManillaRoad are thrilled to bring you..

IAN COGNITO

'Cogs' is one of the best comics on the national circuit, a veteran who clearly knows what he’s doing as he spits his darkly humorous vitriol over an unsuspecting crowd. Outspoken, opinionated, and totally clued up, this man’s take on the world will have you convinced and convulsed (with laughter).

"Cognito’s indignant polemic is a bracing antidote to more amiable routines. When a comedian can transform rage into humour without diluting their passion, the result is always riveting. Share his inspired madness." - William Cook, The Guardian

"Cognito puts them all in the shade. If you want to know what’s wrong with New Britain, Ian Cognito’s going to tell you. And if you don’t, you’d better keep your mouth shut. Just stunning." - Phil Daoust, The Guardian

"Ian Cognito is up there with the greats. He rants - but not without thought." - Evening Standard

Full support from Ben Briggs, Ben Slaughter, Andrew McBurney & Broady..

As usual, FREE entry.. Doors open 8pm..

Look forward to seeing you's..

ps - recommend getting in early for a seat, it's going to be busy..

Hot Hot Comedy!!!

Helloooo..

Heatwaves all over the country, what better way to enjoy them than with some FREE comedy..

On August 1st we have .....

Headliner - ANDY ROBINSON

We love Andy, he's been here before to try out stuff before touring but he's back to rock the place as headliner..
Here's what a few had to say -

Andy has done over 2000 gigs all over the place, including yer Glee Clubs, Comedy Stores, Highlights and Jongleurs..
Also he’s worked as a warm up artist for loads of popular shows on television such as Never Mind The Buzzcocks, Shooting Stars, Later with Jools Holland, Jonathan Ross as well dozens of others you may know… and some you definitely won’t. He is still relieved that What’s In Your Celebrity Fridge? never made it to series..

‘Andy Robinson is an absolute joy to work with… self-deprecating, generous, very funny and relaxed’ – Jo Brand


And he'll be supported by Richard Quarmby, Gareth & Kiruna, Dave Pitt & Frankie Peoples..

Doors open 8pm, as ever its FREE..
