Bradford Comedy Club - Stand Up Night

Back Once Again For Our Monthly Helping Of Laughter, Featuring 4 Great Comedians.

Headline Act

Nick Doody – has been performing comedy since the 90s when, as a student, he got off to a pretty good start by supporting the legendary Bill Hicks, at Bill’s request. A little later, Nick was a finalist in Channel 4’s So You Think You’re Funny? competition.

Since then he has performed all over the world: Ireland, France, Spain, Switzerland, Germany, The Netherlands, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Hong Kong, Thailand, Malaysia, Estonia… You get the idea. He was the first British comedian to perform in Croatia.

Nick has appeared on various radio and TV shows (listed below), and is also much in demand as a writer. He has penned jokes for Joan Rivers, Lenny Henry, Dame Edna Everage and an uncomfortable number of Mock The Week regulars. He was also the creator and head writer of Bigipedia, a critically acclaimed Radio 4 show that broadcast in 2009 and 2011. Click here for more info on Nick as a writer.

In 2006, Nick performed his first solo Edinburgh Festival show, Before He Kills Again. The show received rave reviews and sold out for the whole festival, leading to a run at the Soho Theatre. Since then, Nick has written and performed another ten solo hours of stand-up, including Look At This Massive Picture Of My Face. If you’re the bastard who stole the big poster, he hopes it haunts your dreams.

Opening Act

Eddie Fortune – is a Liverpool based comic described as a comedic tornado, talking about the woes of dating, work life and the need to stay in shape, he occasionally mistakes himself as a Julia Roberts from pretty woman. His act can be a gag a second or an existential monologue, poem or song. Displaying a contradictory self deprecating confidence, and heckling the audience with beautiful compliments, Eddie is also a Theatre Producer for Crumbs Theatre, Liverpool.

Middle Act

Jim Bayes – Endearing and likeable performer Jim Bayes is a frustrated Yorkshire man with the ability to make excellent and thoughtful observations as well as having an eye for the silly.

He has 2 solo shows to his name, what am I doing here in 2012 and Pure Jim in 2016 as well as being a much sought after MC.

Jim is high energy and larger than life on stage which works in both weekend clubs or an intimate coffee shop gig.

Since turning pro in 2016 Jim has gone on to work some of the most well known clubs in the uk and has also performed in Amsterdam, Dublin, Malaga, Gibraltar and Marbella as well as the Edinburgh festival.
