An acclaimed actor, award winning comedian, producer, presenter, writer and musician, there is no end to his talent! Phil is an energetic and exciting performer with an unquenchable thirst to break boundaries and innovate with his work. His skill as an improviser whether it be musical, comedy or straight is unparalleled. With a surreal edge to his mischievous rantings, Nichol always brings something new to the stage. His keen sense of fun and eye for the shocking and absurd has cemented his position as one of the best comedians on the circuit today.  “There is no point in trying to describe the experience, every Nichol gig is unique of course, it has to be lived, you just have to be there, to absorb the atmosphere he creates and of course laugh until the stomach muscles ache for they surely will.”  ★★★★★ – ONE4REVIEW “Phil Nichol is a born entertainer…Phil is a multi-faceted performer meaning he can do everything from musical comedy to one-liners, storytelling, characterisation, black comedy, blue comedy — you name it.”  ★★★★★ – THE SCOTSMAN TONY VINO Preston’s very own funnyman Tony Vino (**** The Scotsman) has been touring the comedy scene since early 2005. Well aware of social and political issues he mixes friendly well thought out observational humour with audience interaction and quick witted responses. A finalist in 2006 Funny Bones competition, Tony has enjoyed recognition as a comedian and comedy compere of renown, including as tour support to Tim Vine. His life and interests are wide ranging and so is the subject matter he weaves together on stage.  “A Great Show the assured Tony Vino copes with a mixed audience really well” KATE COPSTIC, THE SCOTSMAN “Uplifting style, great delivery and consistently funny throughout” BBC MANCHESTER “Tony Vino makes me laugh on and off stage. He’s always funny and has some of the same letters as my name”. TIM VINE “Life Affirming Comedy” BBC1’s HEAVEN & EARTH SHOW CEYLA AB Celya Ab is the most unique emerging talent on the UK circuit. Originally from Paris, France and of French – Algerian origins, Celya is now residing in the sunny city of Birmingham and has been making a huge impression on the UK comedy scene despite only starting her comedy career in 2017. Able to perform in French & English, Celya’s sharp writing brings a unique look into life as a EU expat living in post-brexit Britain.  With a very likeable stage presence and natural ability Celya looks destined for the top “I was shocked and appalled by Celya’s sharp and annoyingly observant gags. An exciting and promising writer.”- JOE LYCETT THE SMALL PRINT You can find us on Farsley Town Street next to the Post Office.
