Lancaster Comedy Club presents:

Mickey Bartlett

Belfast’s Micky Bartlett first performed stand up as it was a requirement of his drama course at university! Fortunately, the student crowd loved Micky and Micky loved stand up. Unfortunately, Northern Ireland had no small comedy clubs at the time so Micky was instrumental in setting up quite a few including Mason’s in (London)Derry* where he became the resident compere.

At the tender age of twenty two he entered BBC Northern Ireland’s ‘Find Me The Funny‘ which involved a series of comedic challenges which culminated in Micky headlining to a thousand strong crowd at Belfast’s Ulster Hall.

“Brilliant—Northern Ireland’s answer to Kevin Bridges” Culture NI “Micky has everything it takes to be a huge star… in years to come, people will be talking about the time they first saw Micky Bartlett… One of the most consistently funny people I’ve ever worked with”Adam Hills

Phil Chapman

Phil began performing comedy in 2006 at a local Chinese restaurant, he was asked to leave soon into the performance, but such was the reaction of the crowd - a rapturous round of applause (in hindsight, this may have been more for the management although no one can really confirm anything) - he decided to pursue a career via more conventional means. He then found a local comedy venue running beginners nights, and after his first performance, was asked to perform in the final of the new act competition, where he placed second.

Will Duggan

Will is definite that you want to hear his grubby little opinions; so sure in fact that he has collected them all into a neat little hour (laugh dependent, time not guaranteed, no refunds) for your delight and delectation. So come along and see some ‘superb stand-up’ (Skinny) about self-belief, belonging and the arrogance of horses, jumped up little pricks. You may know Will from Radio 4, BBC3, or titting about in a dog costume in Fosters Award Winning Funz and Gamez. Peace Out.

Phil Ellis

Deliciously unhinged, PHIL ELLIS’ performances are entirely unique. Audiences quickly become enraptured by his maverick charm, his ability tothink on his feet meaning there is always a slight twist to his set, making each appearance fresh and thrilling.

‘Ellis sets such a cracking pace…frisky, easy banter spreading a feeling of good-humoured fun.’ Chortle

Please note: Due to the high standard of comedians we bring to The Borough it isn't unusual to lose one to TV, overseas or corporate commitments so all tickets are sold on the basis that acts are subject to change. If you’re travelling to see a specific act please phone ahead to ensure they’re still on the bill.
