Phil O’Shea is a clown/comedian who wants to take you on a journey. He will become characters, talk about spiders, and maybe even get round to mentioning dogs in this absurd experimental show.

A brand-new wild, fast, funny, and often filthy show from the award-winning comic that bursts with positivity, frantic stand-up and improv comedy energy and some outright mentalness (not a word).

As he embarks on his first international tour, Joe ‘could have been a dancer’ Sutherland is bravely talking about something that, until recently, he’s suffered in silence: being a total hunk.

Carl is back for a third consecutive, back-to-back tour. Rich in observations and exaggerated physical comedy, a night out with this Geordie will have you belly laughing from start to finish.

Alice Fraser has fallen in love… with romance novels. She’s written a delirious love letter to the genre and now she has to live with the consequences.

This is a very funny show about getting back up when life has hit you hard. Years later and having been through some ups and downs, Matt learns something about himself that you’ll not forget!

Adam Flood brings an experimental night of electronic music and live comedy to Monkey Barrel after hyped sellout shows at Edinburgh Fringe this year. Think Boiler Room does stand-up.
