XS Malarkey with HEADLINER TBA

53Two · Manchester

HIya! Since 1997 XS Malarkey has been a Manchester comedy institution, with compere Toby Hadoke bringing you the very best comedians at the lowest prices. A minimum of just £3 for members and £6 for normal people- we keep tickets as low as possible to keep shows accessible, but if you can afford to pay more please do- we basically rely on those who can pay more than the minimum in order to pay for the shows. We are a volunteer-run, not-for-profit club, and we really depend on your support to keep these shows running, so we hugely appreciate any extra help! Thank you! This week HEADLINER TBA IMOGEN ANDREWS ANDY WOOLSTON and MC TOBY HADOKE Lifetime membership costs £15, and includes entry to the show; you can also ask at the door on the night if you'd like to upgrade to membership.

Manchester Improv Wednesdays

The English Lounge · Manchester

An evening of fully improvised comedy - every Wednesday The Line Up.... Vacuous Dullards Live Two men. Zero social graces. Recorded on magnetic tape. Vacuous Dullards documents the audio archives of Mark a self-appointed "analogue lifelogger" and his best friend Mike. Having exhausted the quiet comfort of railway platforms, the two avid trainspotters have made the brave, ill-advised decision to broaden their adventures by visiting other British "places of interest." You decide where they visit and then sit back and eavesdrop on the unscripted agony of two deeply awkward homebodies attempting to interact in general public. Vacuous Dullards Live is performed by: Mike Burton, Fergus Wynne and Mark Smith If you are interested you can follow along for field trips and tape hiss at the Vacuous Dullards podcast: Available on Spotify, Apple podcasts and Amazon music. Produced and engineered by: Neely Gale What our audiences are saying: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Sublime, silly and yet an utterly recognisable slice of absurdist cake..." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Eccentric and great improv. Loved it." Improv On Demand Want to see Doctor Who save the universe from a 50-foot Duncan B...

Murder Inc Presents: Four Minute Mourning

The Old Monkey · Manchester

We've all had those house-shares where you wish you had a bit more personal space. Someone is eating your cereal, drinking your milk, not doing the fair share of chores on the chore wheel. Worse, maybe they're always hogging the TV or listening to crap music. It can be maddening. But what happens when you can't get out in the fresh air to clear your head? Join Murder Inc in November as we stage one of our tensest murder mysteries yet. Things go from bad to worse when there's a killer in the fallout shelter. As always, bring your best suggestions. Shows this month in Leeds, Manchester, Stockport, and Macclesfield. Murder Inc has been performing shows in the North for 10 years. Come see the crime scene for yourself. “Eye-wateringly…pants-wettingly funny” – Reviews Hub Comedy. Improv. Murder. Mystery. It’s Murder Inc.
