From October, WKD Comedy at Vanilla will be no more. So long live Comedy Centro @ Centro on Tibs Street in the Northern Quarter.
Bethany Black, Organiser & Compere of the new night is excited by the prospect of the move to the new venue and says its going to be something a bit special. "We've got some of the best acts in the world and all originals, we're hoping to create an environment where they can come and perform their most intelligent, innovative, provocative and original material."
For their first night on Sunday 4th October, they've got a double headline event with two of her favourite acts ever - The multi award winning Robin Ince (British Comedy Award Nominee 2006) and the one & only Barbara Nice ("Imagine a hybrid between Mrs. Merton and Victoria Wood" The Times). Boosting the line up are two of Stand Up's bright young things. The winner of this year's Chortle Student Comedian Of the Year competition, Joe Lycett and a brand new & utterly brilliant comedian by the name of Jay Hampson. Bethany, who has just returned from a successful run of shows at this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival, will host the proceeding.
We are also informed that there will be offers and all sorts of VIP Treats for regulars, so if you've been to nights that were held at Vanilla then make yourself known to obtain some fantastic special offers.
Comedy Centro will be held on the first Sunday of every month. Admission is pay on the door only and it's £6, but £5 for students & unemployed.
