Rob Gilroy

I used to perform a musical/character act called Jerry Bucham, a na¯ve and inept protest singer but I have recently started to gig as myself, a musical comedy act. This has gone down very well at clubs including The Stand Newcastle, HaHa Comedy and Hilarity Bites. I have recently started getting paid opening and middle spots. I am based in Bradford and I drive. Here is my Comedy CV: http://www.comedycv.co.uk/robgilroy/index.html Since the page was uploaded I have performed several paid 10/15 spots at The Stand Newcastle including opening and middle spots on their weekend line up, spots at Gav Webster's Sunday show, Seymour Mace's Seymour's Gang show and John Scott's Sod the Tories night. I have also performed paid and 10s and 15s for Hilarity Bites, The Frog and Bucket and Baby Blue and Joe Bromehead, as well as numerous 10 spots for Kill For a Seat, Funhouse Comedy, HaHa Comedy and other venues as well. In the past I have opened for Chris Ramsey, Simon Donald, Kunt and the Gang and Pat Monahan. Here is a video of my previous act, just waiting on a new video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwfy7y0q8xY "One of the best new comedy writing talents around" Chris Addison "Really funny...Excellent" Josie Long "Brilliant as always" Pat Monahan "Rob did a very good job in a difficult room, getting several applause breaks from the audience. Rob has created a well-rounded character that only has the ability to grow to match the pin-sharp writing that has already caught the eye of the BBC." Neil Jollie, Hilarity Bites "A well drawn and rounded creation; snappy gags, great tunes & fab writing - well worth seeking out" BBC, Newcastle "Funny, believable characters that capture the zeitgeist - killer comedy" Matt Seber, Comedy @ The Railway "Jerry Bucham's blend of well-rounded characters, clever writing and catchy songs make him one to watch for the future" Laughing Penguin Comedy "Brilliant characters...Excellent" LongLiveComedy.com "Weird and wonderful stage presence" Youth Review
