A gala show presents household names and emerging talents alike
Tyne Theatre & Opera House plays host to a star-studded night of comedy on Wednesday 23rd November, courtesy of local promoters Fingers and Fringe.
Bringing together some of the most renowned stand-ups in the country, the gala will boast a stacked bill brimming with household names and emerging talents alike.
American heavyweight Reginald D. Hunter and Scottish whirlwind Fern Brady (now of Taskmaster fame) will be joined by Britain’s Got Talent finalist Daliso Chaponda, Live At The Apollo favourite Scott Bennett, All Killa No Filla podcast queen Rachel Fairburn and local up-and-comer Louise Young, with Kiwi compere extraordinaire Jarred Christmas wrangling proceedings with his irrepressibly hysterical knack throughout.
Speaking about the show, Fingers and Fringe’s Matty and Luke said: “It’s always been a dream of ours to put on a show of this size together, and to do it at Tyne Theatre & Opera House is an absolute joy. Strip Fingers and Fringe down and you have two die-hard fans of comedy wanting to put on a great show with an incredible line-up.”
