TweetThis month it's something different from our usual Friday night show .... not only is it on a Thursday, but its an entire evening of improvised sketch comedy from our resident improv group ... and it's ONLY £5 A TICKET!!!
THE DISCOUNT COMEDY CHECKOUT
Expect new games, new scenes, new characters.... and more laughs!
100% raw improvised sketch from 4 of the following FANTASTIC performers:
Chris Lumb (BBC3: Russell Howards Good News), Eddie French, Natalie Smeaton (ITV1: Britain's Got Talent), and Phil Smith (BBC1: This is MY House).
If you've never seen improvised comedy before, you are in for a right treat. All the games, scenarios, and situations are formed and created from your suggestions ... that's right YOU, the audience.
It's very much in the style of 'Whose Line is it Anyway' but with a modern twist .... and normally a little riskier and ruder and too.
The Discount Comedy Checkout have been performing all over the UK for over 10 years and have gained rave reviews at various festivals, the Edinburgh Fringe, and a number of popular weekend comedy clubs.
"The comedy is creative and crude, quick and quirky, the performers commit completely to the games and create funny & fantastic characters at a moment's notice." - ★★★★★ Remotegoat
"There's a wonderful slapstick nature to it all but they are all impressively literate in film culture and genres too, creating brilliant, quick draw pastiches of popular cinema that will have you in stitches." - ★★★★★ Manchester's Finest
"Total fun and instantly engaging." - ★★★★★ WHODARESGRINS
"True Masters of what they do" - Hull comedy Festival
"They blew the roof off" - Toby Hadoke

Brilliant show.. full of great stories and laughs. The night was made even better by Troy taking time at the end of the show to come into the bar for a chat and to pose for photos with everyone.

Great night support from local ledgend Fran Garrity then the amazing Troy Hawke the act is not for some but I've seen him before in the same venue few years ago this work in progress show was great and well polished Troy's interaction and rollercoaster of his life stories are great I've knocked 2 stars off the venue as it was very cold when we first arrived the heating was on after around 20 mins you could feel the temp plummet they should have a whip round to get punters to throw in a couple of quid in the hat to go towards the energy bill.The compare Matty Oxleu was a welcome suprise too.
