About this Event
On Thursday 2nd May Craicfriars Comedy sets out to answer a question at Blackfriars of Bell St: which comedy scene is funnier, Edinburgh or Glasgow? You the audience decide! Representing Edinburgh, we have the very funny Cobin Millage, Ayo Adenekan and Dan McKenna; facing off against them is a formidable team of Glasgow’s finest: Daniel Petrie, Maria McAveety and John Carruthers. Adjudicating will be our neutral host from Stirling, the award-nominated Iain Hume.
Iain Hume is a two-time Scottish Comedian of the Year finalist and comedy circuit legend. Other awards include winning both the Rotunda Gong Show and the nationally famous Frog & Bucket Beat The Frog contest. He was chosen to open for Ed Byrne at Strathaven Comedy Club.
“Completely honest, funny, original and wickedly wonderful” – Janey Godley
“Completely unforced, charismatic, grabbing your attention from the very first minute.” – Gary Meikle
**PLEASE READ CAREFULLY**
• Tickets can be refunded no less than 24 hours before the show.
• Line-ups can be subject to change at short notice.
• This show is in two parts separated by one interval. Doors open at 7:30pm, one hour before the start time of 8pm. Please arrive before the show starts but not before 7:30pm. Attendees who arrive more than 10 minutes late will not be granted admission or a refund.
• Don’t talk or heckle during the performances. This rule is NOT optional. It is very distracting for both the performer and other audience members. Some performers (usually the host) might talk to the audience, but otherwise please let the comedians do the talking. Heckling does not ‘help the show’. Think of it like cinema rules: laughter, cheers, applause are all great, but talking or yelling out is not. And another cinema rule…
• Please put your phone on silent. Photos are fine but please no video or flash photography.
• If your chair is not facing the stage when you come in, please rotate it when the show starts.
• These shows are for people aged 18 and over. You may be asked to show ID if you do not look of age.
• Craicfriars Comedy does not necessarily agree or disagree with the opinions and viewpoints expressed by the comedians. Acts are booked based on their ability to make people laugh, beyond that we respect freedom of expression. If you disagree or are offended by what you hear, you are free to express this by not laughing, by leaving, or by respectfully raising your objections with the act after the show or via social media. You may not interrupt an on-going performance.
• Exceptions to rules are at the discretion of Craicfriars Comedy. Audience members who repeatedly break these rules will be asked to leave.
