richmilner 10 #1 Posted September 7, 2014 After an August-long hiatus we’re joined this month by a lovely line-up jostling with distinctive voices and styles and blimey there’s baked goods to boot and there are also food, drink and ticket deals available via The Red Deer. Jessica Fostekew A smart and compelling presence on the circuit, Fostekew has been performing improvised comedy and working as a comedy actress since 2005. In 2008 she hit the UK stand up circuit like a thunderbolt of joy and became a finalist in the Funny Women’s Awards in 2010. With acclaimed and sold out fringe shows under her belt, she has been praised for being clever, silly and very funny. She has appeared on Stephen K Amos’ Radio 4 show and supported both Micky Flanagan and Terry Alderton on tour across the UK, so we’re very excited that she’ll be joining us at the Red Deer. ‘Wears her smarts on her sleeve, great stuff’ – The Guardian ‘Intelligent humour and sharp, insightful stand up’ – The Evening Standard ‘intensely funny… very talented’ – Time Out ‘She informed, educated and entertained, a one-woman BBC, and left us wanting more, but in a good way.’ – Chortle ‘Consistently hilarious’ – Fest Mag Lewis Charlesworth One of the most enjoyable stage presences on the North West comedy circuit, Lewis is the only person ever to guest host Square Hole and is delightfully silly and exuberantly energetic. He’s a regular face on stages hither and thither and is soon to appear on the BBC’s upcoming Big Afro-Caribbean Comedy Night showcase. ‘very natural and most certainly funny. He is definitely a name to look out for in future!’ – Nerve Magazine ‘…garnering quite a reputation as one to watch’ – Gag Reflex ‘I would highly recommend seeing one of his shows’ – The Lancashire Times ‘he has a very distinctive style and is going to go far’ – Jason Manford plus Jon Whiteley Tom King and host Rich Milner Doors open 7.30pm, show starts 8pm Admission £3 (adv) / £5 (door) Advance tickets available from wegottickets.com.
