We are hugely excited to have another pair of fantastic comedians showcasing their newest full-length shows. Come along to Gullivers in the Northern Quarter on Monday 24th July for previews from the incredible Sam See and our very own Jonny Collins!
Jonny Collins
An hour of jokes, musings and philosophies about gender, sexuality, and identity, from Blizzard Comedy’s own Jonny Collins. 11+ years in the game, they’re finally working on their first hour, delving into their own journey of self-discovery, the experiences of being a non-binary trans-femme individual in the modern day, and reflections on the very nature of how we perceive humanity.
“Jonny is a force of nature on stage. A whirlwind of hilarity with a unique viewpoint, they energy and passion personified.” – XS Malarkey
"Jonny Collins is deceptively rapid-fire, with a gag rate that would shame most one-line merchants. They can bring a simmer to a boil with ease, and make a huge mess of your kitchen." – James Ross (Quantum Leopard)
