International Award Winning TV Comedian Comes to Comedy Club

ON Friday, 29 September 2017, at the Atkinson's Laugh Out Loud Comedy Club presents a comedy corker with the award winning Alistair Barrie. Comedian, actor and writer Alistair Barrie is blessed with a witty turn of phrase and an on stage elegance he is 1 of the most sought after performers on the international comedy circuit.  He has worked throughout the UK and Ireland, as well as further afield in:- America, Australia, Switzerland, Netherlands, South Africa, Estonia, Mumbai, The Channel Islands, Austria, Antibes, Cyprus, Crete, Luxembourg, Qatar, Belgium, Prague, Dubai, Doha, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi, Norway, Hong Kong, Macau, Malta, Singapore, Indonesia, Kuala Lumpur, Egypt, Afghanistan, Hungary, Jordan, Athens and Myanmar, on a ship in the North Sea and at the world's highest gig on top of a mountain in France.

Alistair is a core member of The Cutting Edge team at London's Comedy Store and has made numerous radio and television appearances around the world. A regular at corporate events and festivals, he has taken 7 solo shows to the Edinburgh Festival; his 2012 show 'Urban Fogey' and 2015 show 'No More Stage 3' were both runner up for best show at the Fringe in the Amused Moose Laughter Awards. No More Stage 3 was then invited to the 2016 Perth Festival in Australia before a European tour and dates at London's prestigious Soho Theatre.

He also appeared in the hit plays 'Breaker Morant' with Adam Hills and 'Coalition' with Phill Jupitus, which transferred to London after its Edinburgh run. He created and compered 'Bye George,' the comedians' farewell to George W. Bush, at the Southbank's Queen Elizabeth Hall in 2009 and has performed in some of the country's most prestigious theatres including:- The Bloomsbury, Lyceum, Harold Pinter, Shepherd's Bush Empire, Oxford New Theatre and The Manchester Opera House. He has written for the BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Sky, Radio 4 and a number of other comedians.

Alongside former Perrier nominee Nick Revell, between 2011 and 2015 Alistair co-produced, wrote and performed in 'No Pressure to be Funny,' a monthly topical show and podcast presented by LBC's James O'Brien, described by The Daily Telegraph as 'the fringe's answer to Question Time' and by The Observer as 1 of the Top 10 podcasts of 2015.

Phil Chapman began performing comedy in 2006, performing around the North of England, where he placed second in 4 more competitions, including:- the legendary Beat the Frog World Series.

Given his consistency, and undeterred by his near brushes with success, he decided to carry on performing and has now established himself as a regular in many clubs around the country, and he is renowned for his ability to win over any audience.

From his carefully crafted gags, to his engaging anecdotes, his material and stage presence ensure he is a big hit wherever he's playing, and he always leaves.

All line ups are subject to change, but don't worry, we'll only replace them with someone twice as funny!
