The Comedy Club Coventry Theatre & Performing Arts

The Comedy Club Coventry at Coventry Rugby on Thursday 30th June. 3 Top Comedians as Seen on TV.

Host Comedian - Sally Anne Hayward:
Absolutely Fabulous (BBC), Why the Long Faces (Ch4).
Sally-Anne Hayward combines the things you shouldn't like about your best friend's mum with the sensibilities of Jack the Ripper. She grew up to reject dizzy incompetence and feminine wiles for a disarming mix of ingratiating charm and unsettling pugnacity that gets more laughs than a hyena’s dawn rally. An accomplished radio presenter with stage and TV acting credentials ('Absolutely Fabulous' BBC, 'Why the Long Faces' Square Donkey Productions, and various TV warm-up including 'Deal or No Deal' Channel 4), Sally-Anne's confident persona and quick wit have rapidly made her a much sought-after compere.

Opening Comedian – Steve Shanyaski:
Jason Manford's 'Comedy Rocks' (ITV 2011).
In 2003, Steve stood up, unchained himself from his desk and walked out of a mind-numbing logistics job (after handing in his contracted 1 month notice) in order to pursue a career in comedy - and has never looked back. Within months of his comedic birth he made it through to the semi-finals of the BBC New Comedian of the Year, the North West Comedian of the Year Final, and later that year he had the honour of appearing on the BBC7 Radio Showcase "Spanking New". Since then he has added to his list of accolades by being named the Holsten Pils Comedian of the Year and most recently appeared on Jason Manford's Comedy Rocks (ITV).

Headline Comedian – Junior Simpson:
Big Brother's Big Mouth (C4), Armstrong & Miller Show (C4), Casualty (BBC), The Comic Side of Seven Days (BBC), Love Actually (Film – DJ Role).
With his infectious energy and huge stage presence it is easy to see why Junior Simpson is a circuit favourite. Simpson has a boundless joy and exuberance that has audiences hooked with hilarity. A true observational comic Simpson finds his humour in the everyday and humdrum with anecdotes of his world travels as a comedian adding a personal originality to his set.
