Come along and see...
Katie Mitchell
A very silly show about a serious pain in the back.
After a minor back injury, Katie has become obsessed with spines. How they work, why they hurt, and why the only ones making sense are two rats from IKEA. Marvel as she accepts that things dropped on the floor no longer exist! Watch her beloved yoga mat gather dust FOR YOUR ENTERTAINMENT.
Best in Class Alumni Katie Mitchell makes her full-run debut with a show riddled with scientists, rats, odd bathroom-encounters, and 90s girl-groups.
NO LAUGHTER. NO SUDDEN MOVEMENTS. YOU MUST SNEEZE UPWARDS.
Please bring own lumbar support.
“Very inventive and very funny” - Wee Review
“Katie Mitchell is an example of everything comedy should be” – Mark Dean Quinn

John Porter
Returning after an absence, John is a former XS Manchester Comedian Of The Year runner up and an accomplished circuit performer.
He talks about his life, cos no one else lives it, and generally the things that annoy him. Mostly other comedians
"An outstanding 15-minute set received a standing ovation from more than 2000 bikers." - Back Street Heroes
"Material was good, a refreshing take on the topic of disability, with good delivery and nice stage presence." - Forest Watkins, Gag Reflex
"Buy a watch" - Tony Basnett
and Eryn Tett
Eryn Tett is an award winning, alternative comedian, most recently seen on U&Dave for Rosie Jones' Disability Extravaganza. Described as “an engagingly idiosyncratic act” (Chortle) and a “memorable, distinctive new voice” (The Telegraph) whose "off-kilter observations and surreal ideas are often brilliant” (British Comedy Guide) Tett's stand up is made up of word play, short jokes and odd observations set to a charmingly uncomfortable rhythm.
“One of the sharpest bonkers comedy minds of her generation”- Blizzard Comedy
“Affectedly awkward, immediately likeable…consistently funny” - Festmag
“Not afraid to push boundaries…so much originality and commitment to innovation”- Funny Women
“Strikingly odd one-liners with an enviable hit rate”- The Telegraph
“Unique in all the best ways…so fun to watch. She’s going to be massive”- Adam Hess
with host Jonny Collins
Jonny Collins is an aggressively inclusive Non-Binary comedian, Jonny pulls no punches yet makes everyone feel welcome and represented in their thought provoking, and well constructed deconstructions of gender, sexuality and politics. With radical leftist ideals and a fast and furious delivery style, Jonny Collins is a favourite of socialists, anarchists, feminists (of the trans inclusive variety), and queer activists alike.
“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)
