Avalon Promotions presents: The Alternative Comedy Night

Avalon present a night of the best left-field comedy around!

Featuring:

Carl Donnelly

2013 Edinburgh Comedy Award Nominee Carl Donnelly (as seen on Mock The Week, Russell Howard's Good News, Dave's One Night Stand) has established himself as one the freshest and most distinctive acts on the circuit. His conversational style, hilarious anecdotes and observations on the state of the world - and how we should be dealing with it - has been called "Gripping, unmissable stand-up" by The Guardian.


Matt Winning

Winner of the Hilarity Bites New Act of the Year 2011, Matt Winning is one of the most exciting, unique and imaginative new stand-up and character comedians in the UK. The Scottish comic's eccentric and idiosyncratic act is a whirlwind of ideas, combining an original approach to one-liners, acute observations and shouting loudly.

Phil Wang

Winner of the 2010 Chortle Student Comedian of the Year Award, the Comedy Central Live Funniest Student Award 2011, and the current President of the prestigious Cambridge Footlights, Phil Wang is rapidly making a name for himself as one of Britain’s funniest Engineering undergraduates. In his brief time here on Earth, Phil has supported acts such as Greg Davies, Kurt Braunohler and Kristen Schaal, and Chris Addison with his dry, deadpan charm and an occasional ukulele.

Rob Auton

York born writer, comedian and one time actor Rob Auton has ideas, writes them down and says them to audiences at comedy nights, poetry nights and at theatres at night. Rob has been standing up and saying things to audiences up, down and across the British Isles since 2008. He has written three five star rated Edinburgh fringe shows, 2012's 'The Yellow Show', 2013's The Sky Show, and 2014's 'The Face Show'. In 2014 the Guardian called Rob 'a genuine original' after seeing his Edinburgh fringe show 'The Face Show' (an hour long comedy/theatre show about faces).
