Line Up
MC Colin Manford
Colin Manford is a North West based comedian who also happens to be Jason’s little brother!
An accomplished writer, actor and presenter who just loves to tell stories from his own unique perspective, all areas covered from his failed relationships to his weird and wonderful family life and more. No-holds barred comedy at its finest.
A very strong MC who can connect with any audience and can adapt to any situation, enjoying a growing reputation which has seen him booked not only in countries such as The Czech Republic, Croatia, Slovenia, Malta and Romania but also the UKs top clubs.
He has written for 8 Out of 10 Cats and Walk on the Wild Side and his debut one man show had 2 sell out nights at the 2010 Manchester Comedy Festival.
"Tales of student and family life. A funny guy. Holding his own on stage he bridges the gaps between the generations."
Mirth on Monday
"Naturally and effortlessly funny."
Alex Boardman
Danny Deegan
With the confidence and swagger that you might expect of a North-West comedian at the very top of his game, Danny Deegan is a comedian, writer and actor who has become a regular at most of the major comedy clubs in the UK since he began performing in 2003.
Danny’s tales of mischief and the characters he creates have kept audiences all over the country enthralled as he weaves in and out of the people he has met travelling. His talent and likeability coupled with his confidence make him one of the most popular acts in the North, a master at dealing with a tough crowd.
Danny performed a headline set in the Comedy Tent at the Green Man Festival in South Wales and then was asked to wrap up for Manchester band The Doves after their headline set in front of 12,000 people.

"Constantly surprising, laugh out loud funny" - Harry Hill.
"Great comic presence, disarming silliness, an oddball charm, and a brilliant, unexpected turn of phrase" - Bill Bailey.
Nina Gilligan
Nina Gilligan sometimes outrageous, always hilarious with a charming, loveable persona which belies an acerbic wit.
Equally at home in clubs as in Art Centres, Nina is opening, closing and hosting gigs up and down the country.
2021 saw her crowned as the winner of the prestigious Leicester Mercury Award after also winning Liverpool Hot Water and being a finalist in English Comedian of The Year in previous years.
