FRIDAY NIGHT FUN 🤩
Craig Hill - This Gets Harder Every Year!
The Lemon Tree, Aberdeen
Friday 29th March at 8pm ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Celebrating 25 years of riotous live comedy with the funnest audiences anyone could wish for, no matter where he goes, Scotland’s much-loved Kilty Pleasure unleashes his latest fantastic show for a fun evening of uproarious stand-up!

Craig’s shows are firmly established on the comedy landscape as a brilliant night out. He’s hugely popular for a good reason and for quarter of a century his tours have sold out fast – so book early and get set for a superb hour of jaw-ache-inducing, nudge-yer-pal gasping, proper laugh-out-loud belly laughs.

Renowned world-wide for his high-octane, irreverent live comedy, Craig’s razor-sharp wit and natural rapport with audiences has seen him perform across the UK, Europe, Australia (including the Sydney Opera House) and a season of shows in an historic off-Broadway theatre in New York.
Celebrating all things cheeky and fun, Craig was also recently honoured with a nomination for the inaugural Sir Billy Connolly Spirit of Glasgow Award.

Two un-missable comedians coming to Aberdeen this October!

🤣Gary Faulds brings his new show Frontier to the Aberdeen Arts Centre on Friday, 6 October at 8pm.

'Totally relatable and utterly hilarious' say the Daily Record

Frontier is Gary’s journey into the unknown, will we find aliens on mars? Can I get Turkey teeth? Will I ever call my Mum’s boyfriend Da? Can I do yoga without farting? Will the yoga lassie let me back after fart gate?

An action-packed hour of relatable comedy from Gary who just wants to be a better version of himself, but what steps need to be taken for that to happen? How do normal people live the life of these six-pack Spartan gods on Instagram who have never had bad days or bits of doner meat stuck to their teeth?

What a show!👍🏻 🏍️🥗

took to the stage at the Music Hall after a three year long delay thanks to the ‘C’ word.

‘Virgin’ Richardson audience members were quickly indoctrinated as to why they should never contact him ahead of a gig courtesy of Simon (who did reach out when he should have reached to Google) and found himself to be the target for Jon’s Sunday roast. 😂

From his accounts about being a husband to taking the mickey out of the Hairy Bikers his well crafted gags and observations on the peculiarities of human life hit the mark with the audience. 👍🏻

The audience may have waited three years for this rescheduled Knitwit but Jon proved it was worth the effort of carefully guarding those fridge door tickets.

When I got home I hung my jacket on the Jon with a wee smile! (If you know you know)! 😉

Tour continues - catch him if you can. 🙌🏻

And on Tuesday and Wednesday this week we have the joy of Stewart Lee - a few tickets remain for a show you won’t want to miss! 🎭

🍀ON SALE NOW 🍀
Jason Byrne: The Ironic Bionic Man

We can rebuild him! Jason is, officially Bionic, “ironically” of course, as Jason, the accident-prone, general unfortunate gobsh*te (to no want of his own) is now, half man, half machine.

Born with a c**k eye (then straightened), his lung collapsed (it was blown back up and sealed with metal pins), appendix removed, cartilage replaced in his knee from a poo-on-the-loo accident, arm dislocated by a wave, heart now functioning on six stents.

Don’t miss THE IRONIC BIONIC MAN as he brings us through his one-man, half-machine show. It’s painfully hilarious.

Don’t miss this six million dollar/euro Irish prodigy.

The star of BBC2 stand-up special, “Sara Pascoe: LadsLadsLads” is back with her brand-new stand-up show - Suc­cess Story.

A highly acclaimed comedian, writer, and actor, Sara decided she wanted to be famous at 14 years old! Since then, she has auditioned for Barrymore, scared Pete Burns and ruined Hugh Grant’s birthday - but look at her now… (please look, she needs you to look. And clap. And laugh. And then clap again).

Sara wrote and starred in her recent BBC2 sitcom Out Of Her Mind, and is the celebrated host of BBC2’s The Great British Sewing Bee, BBC’s Last Woman On Earth, Dave’s Comedians Giving Lectures and Comedy Central’s Guessable.

She also wrote and performed the BBC Radio 4 series Modern Monkey and the BBC2 short Sara Pascoe vs Monogamy, which was inspired by her first book Animal. Her second book, S*x Power Money, was a Sunday Times bestseller, and the accompanying podcast of the same name garnered millions of listens and multiple award nominations during its run.
