For one night only, some of the biggest names in comedy will descend upon Bristol's Colston Hall for a superb night or merriment and mirth in aid of Bristol Slapstick Festival.

Actor and much loved stand up comedian Jason Manford is taking a break from starring in ‘Chitty Chitty Bang Bang’ as it takes to the road following a successful West End run. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to see him performing stand up in 2016.
Jack Dee is one of Britain’s best loved and biggest comedy stars capturing the imagination of audiences and critics with his dry humour and dead pan delivery. A great supporter of Slapstick Festival, we’re delighted to have Jack back on-board for this special evening of comedy.
Actor, writer, comedian Susan Calman is a regular panellist on Radio 4’s ‘The News Quiz’ and ‘I Guess That’s Why They Call It The News’. She will be joining us fresh from her Edinburgh Fringe show ‘Before the Storm’.
And to complete the initial line, up we have ‘One of the hidden masters of British Comedy’ Richard Herring. One half of the stand up comedy act ‘Lee and Herring’, Richard has a passionate and loyal following of comedy fans and is currently touring his ‘Happy Now’ stand up show to sell out crowds across the country.
With new additions to the lineup expected soon, keep your eye on www.slapstick.org.uk, Twitter and Facebook for the latest info. Tickets are priced at £29.50 and available here.
