Line Up :

Emmanuel Sonubi : Life After Near Death Edfringe preview (WIP)
Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Newcomer nominee and Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Show nominee, Emmanuel Sonubi returns to Bolton. Fresh from sold-out performances at the Melbourne and Sydney Comedy Festivals in 2025 and Edinburgh Fringe, his European Tour, and a hit New York Soho Theatre run. Emmanuel’s hilarious and heartfelt show explores his eyesight and life after surviving heart failure. Facing the cause of the trauma and the strange, funny ways we all find to keep going when life gets hard. It’s about turning life’s toughest moments into comedy gold, finding the laughs in survival and the punchlines in perseverance.

One of the UK’s most in-demand comedians, Sonubi is a powerhouse on stage, delivering unstoppable energy, razor-sharp wit, and stories that hit hard as he can and still land even harder.
