Bringing elite comedy to Wakefield, we're delighted to announce of our first show at Unity Hall with two amazing headline acts - Fin Taylor and Joe Thomas! Fresh from the viral success of his hit web series Fin vs The Internet, and a sell-out nationwide tour, that comedian your mother doesn't like you seeing is coming to Wakefield and is bringing his brutally funny stand-up. When he's not in a roll-neck making influencers squirm, he's appearing on BBC's Live at the Apollo, Have I Got News for You, The Mash Report and Comedy Central's Roast Battle.
★★★★ ‘Gleefully provocative and packed with big, hard laughs’ - Guardian
★★★★ ‘A gutsy, ingenious truth-teller with the jokes to back up the attitude’ - Times
★★★★ ‘An invigoratingly good comic. A live thrill to watch’ - I Newspaper
