sheffcomedy Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 The Last Laugh Comedy Club returns to the Lescar this Thursday with Dave Twentyman, Eddy Brimson and Keith Carter as Nige headlining. Date – Thurs 8 Nov – Doors 8pm Venue – Lescar, Sharrowvale Rd Tickets - £8 http://www.wegottickets.com/sheffieldcomedy DAVE TWENTYMAN Effortlessly funny and quick on his feet, Dave Twentyman endears himself to the toughest of audiences as an act or compere. "Very funny, lovely young man" XFM Manchester "Twentyman took the show by the horns & did an amazing job, give that man a medal" The Comedy Club Hahaheehee "He deflects the heckles with wit as well as making sure the acts get a rousing reception"Lancashire Life Magazine "Fantastic & Friendly" The Northern Echo EDDY BRIMSON Eddy Brimson is one of the UK circuits most in demand headline acts working regularly with all the leading promoters. Eddy is equally in demand worldwide. He played the first ever Altitude Festival in the French Alps in 2008 and the Sydney Cracker Festival in Australia. Eddy has also taken his comedy to such far flung places as Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Bahrain. He once even played a gig naked. The promoter is still dealing with the legal cases. "Quite simply brilliant" - Sky "Eddy Brimson doesn't muck about" - Three Weeks. "The crowd loved him" - The Guardian NIGE Don’t miss Nige at his favourite comedy venue (well the one he hasn’t been barred from). The original and still one of the finest character acts in the UK. Keith Carter began his stand up career in Liverpool's Orgasmic Comedy Club. Although he was booed off that night, he soon returned with the idea that the audience would like his gags better if told by someone else. And so his first character, "Nige" was born. Nige might look like your garden variety shell-suited scally, but beneath this vacant stereotype lies a wealth of intelligent off-beat gags and keenly observed parodies. Keith Carter is a notable talent on the Comedy scene right now and with a growing repetoire of strange and acutely observed characters to play with, isn't that reminiscent of a certain Mr Coogan, some years back? Capital of Culture judge, Sir Jeremy Isaacs was quoted in the news as saying, ‘He helped Liverpool win the bid,’ after seeing Carter’s comic creation and Liverpool cult hero, ‘Nige’ perform at the cultural bid show for the judges. ‘A character comedian of rare skill.’ The Guardian ‘Surely this man will have his own show in a few years time.’ Chortle ‘Give this man a sitcom.’ Edinburgh Evening News 'Nige For Mayor Of Liverpool?'
