Mad Jack's Comedy Club - May Edition

'Live in the House' presents - Mad Jack's Comedy Club

The team that brought you over 10 years of stand up comedy at Henry Tudor House is now proud to present ‘Mad Jack’s Comedy Club’ – the new home of live comedy at Morris Hall, Shrewsbury.

Our host and MC for the evening Barbara Nice introduces double headliners Rob Deering and Josh Jones.

Josh Jones is a Mancunian ray of sunshine and the most original voice to emerge from the North-West in recent years.

After his hilarious debut TV appearances on E4’s 8 Out of 10 Cats and ITV’s Jonathan Ross’ Comedy Club, Josh has gone on to host BBC Three’s Fast Food Face-Off and make guest appearances on Channel 4’s 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, ITV2’s Iain Stirling’s CelebAbility, E4’s Reality News, Sky Max’s Dating No Filter, Dave’s Late Night Mash, and Comedy Central’s Undeniable, Guessable, Rhod Gilbert’s Growing Pains and Comedy Central Live. Josh recently made his debut appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show.

Rob Deering performs stand-up comedy with music, using a guitar, a loop pedal and his voice to create impressive rock and pop soundscapes – and do jokes, of course.

Along with being one of the most in-demand headliners on the UK circuit, he’s toured nationally and performed solo shows at the Edinburgh Fringe many times since starting out in comedy in the year 2000. His late-night, live-music comedy pop quiz Beat This is a festival institution, on London’s South Bank, at Wales’ Green Man and many more besides Edinburgh.

Barbara Nice is the creation of award-winning comedian and theatre director Janice Connolly. Barbara is the over enthusiastic housewife alter-ego of Birmingham-based performer Janice, who previously appeared in Peter Kay’s Phoenix Nights, and is well known on the circuit for her lively, upbeat presence.

Doors at 7pm and the show starts at 8pm.
