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.

 

Nothing less than a phenomenon, Vince Atta has the industry ignited! Using a multi-track looper, Vince creates live on-the-spot Hip-Hop/Reggae/Techno/anything – hilariously fusing it with natural stand-up, storytelling and audience interaction – creating the most infectious songs you’re ever likely to hear… it really is quite a show!

Vince got his comedy career off to a belting start by winning the much-coveted City Life Comedian Of The Year in 2006.

Since his musical reinvention, Vince is very much in demand. Headlining most British clubs and a veteran of the Edinburgh Fringe, he recently supported Jason Manford on numerous dates across his epic arena tour.

It’s fair to say that everything Vince Atta touches turns to gold. His high-octane performances, stunning delivery & flawless array of impressions leave you short of breath. With a broad, wonderful spectrum of material ranging from students, Spanish horses in a kitchen, psychotic London ex-girlfriends, pointless racial pride & the advantages of an alcoholic mother, this unique, talented and incredibly funny act has to be seen to be believed!
