Martin McAloon

The Crescent Community Venue · York

Martin McAloon of Prefab Sprout 'Steve McQueen - Slight Return' Sunday 22nd November, 6.30pm Tickets are £24.50 (+ b/f) in advance and available from See Tickets. *This is a standing show* Following the overwhelming response to last year's celebrated Two Wheels Good tour, Martin McAloon is hitting the road again this Autumn — this time bringing Prefab Sprout's landmark album Steve McQueen to towns, cities and venues that the tour didn't reach first time around. One of the most beloved British records of the 1980s, Steve McQueen will be performed in full — and that's just the beginning. As with last year's shows, Martin will also be drawing from the wider Prefab Sprout catalogue, bringing to life as many of his brother Paddy's songs as the evening will hold. Last year's repertoire stretched to over thirty songs beyond the album itself. Steve McQueen – Slight Return is a joyful acknowledgement of the demand that never quite went away. "Following the national and international success of the Two Wheels Good tour," says Martin, "it seemed right to acknowledge just how many people were asking for more — in places we hadn't yet reached. I'm buoyed by the reception these songs re...

Deirdre O'Kane: All The Rage

The Crescent Community Venue · York

The Crescent Comedy Deirdre O'Kane: All The Rage Thursday 25th March Doors 7pm, Show 7.30pm *This is a seated show with all seating unreserved* Deirdre O’Kane grabs the zeitgeist once again with a brand new show in a world that feels decidedly off kilter. She contrasts everyday domestic failures with bigger moments of historical injustice, while taking aim at the double tragedies of heartbreak and getting Christmas all wrong. Nothing is sacred and no one is safe from O’Kane’s mischievous eye as she turns irritation, absurdity and outrage into brilliantly observed and hilarious stand-up. "Unique star quality." The Guardian “This positive, slick, sparkling show is a tonic.” Irish Independent "Applause follows her all the way down the street." The Scotsman "Won the audience over from the moment she opened her mouth" Metro "It's a pleasure and a privilege to witness O'Kane" The Reviews Hub

Scott Doonican

The Square Tower · Portsmouth

As the charismatic frontman of the UK's hardest-working comedy band, 'The Bar-Steward Sons of Val Doonican', Scott Doonican is a debonair and theatrical performer with superb hair and more style than you could shake a Milan catwalk at. As a solo performer, Scott's 'One Man Show' shows are every bit as funny, dynamic and engaging as those with his band, and he is equally at ease in front of large festival crowds, as he would be in a theatre or down the pub. This is where Scott Doonican the story-teller, entertainer and consummate showman, gets the opportunity to take his band's extensive back-catalogue of comic-songs and perform them, stripped-back, on just his battered 'Workhorse' acoustic guitar or his little ukulele in his hand. Following, in the footsteps of his comedy-folk heroes (Mike Harding, Jasper Carrott, Billy Connolly, Richard Digance, Jake Thackeray et al), here, the Doonicans' side-splitting song-smithery, comes to the fore, often accompanied by with an abundance of cracking yarns, giving a charming insight to the inspiration behind them. He's on a mission to bring comedy-folk back to the masses for the 21st Century. So, can you trust him? To be silly, yes. To behave,...
