Funhouse Comedy launches comedy night at new venue, Newark Town Hall

A brand new comedy night is set to bring laughter to the town centre.

Funhouse Comedy Club, which already runs successful nights at numerous venues across the country including in Southwell, has announced the launch of a brand new comedy night at Newark Town Hall.

The first event at the venue will take place on Friday, January 31.

Topping the bill will be El Baldiniho, who appeared on ‘Britain’s Got Talent’, and with his daft magic and likeable stage persona he promises to mesmerize the audience.

Opening the night will be the sometimes self-disparaging musical comedian, Friz Frizzle with his individual anecdotes and speedily delivered song parodies, ands also appearing is Patrick Draper, who took the comedy world by storm after winning a string of new act competitions, with his deadpan delivery, witty one-liners, killer punch lines and ridiculous short stories.

Compere for the night will be the cheeky and friendly Stevie Gray with his boundless energy and mix of news and comedy.

Funhouse clubs promise friendly audiences and a brilliant atmosphere, which have led them to twice winning Best Midlands Comedy Club awards with leading comedy website Chortle.

Previous acts to have played its clubs on their road to the top include Sarah Millican, Joe Lycett, James Acaster and Rhod Gilbert.
