Hilarious comedy at The Met on the First Thursday of every month.

Featuring Andy Askins (“Made me belly laugh every time” Kevin Bridges), Bethany Black (“A great comedy mind” British Comedy Guide), and Ryan Kenny, with compere Justin Moorhouse (Live At The Apollo, Fighting Talk, Coronation Street, QI etc)

Andy Askins has an expertly crafted routine littered with an eclectic mix of offbeat comic songs and parodies. Popular songs have been rewritten and given a perverse twist to tremendous comic effect. With impeccable timing, his inventive and quirky songs are peppered with inspired patter and the darker material is sweetened by his impish demeanour which never fails to leave audiences in the palm of his hand

“Brilliant and unique” John Bishop; “Made me belly laugh every time” Kevin Bridges

Well, where do we start when it comes to Bethany Black? We could tell you that Chorley’s funniest daughter is Britain’s only goth, lesbian, transsexual comedian but that was fully covered in her debut show Beth Becomes Her.

As well as making people laugh a lot, Beth was spotted by Russell T Davis and played ‘Helen’ in Channel 4 series’ Cucumber, Banana and Tofu. This is all well and good but just how funny is she? Oh, don’t worry about that as the answer is ‘very’. Awards include winning the 2020 Joe Comedy Award and Bethany is British Comedy Guide recommended.

“Laughing at every other word” ★★★★★ LGBT Arts Review; “A great comedy mind” British Comedy Guide

Your evening comes complete with Ryan Kenny and your compere is Justin Moorhouse!

Whether you’ve seen him on tour, at The Comedy Store, on QI, Coronation Street, Celebrity Mastermind, Live At The Apollo, Dave’s One Night Stand or even Phoenix Nights (ask your mum!), you’ll know why he is constantly in demand as one of the UK’s funniest performers. Peerless performance skills backed by an arsenal of carefully crafted routines and tightly written gags make Justin a surefire success in front of any audience as thousands of fans will gladly testify.
