LOTS OF LAUGHS WITH LAW
Barnard Castle The Witham
Saturday 18 July.
Following
a fourth successive Edinburgh Festival Fringe sell-out run and extensive tour,
Canadian stand-up Tony Law crashes down at the Barnard Castle Comedy Festival
with a brand new show.
Alternative
comedy hero Tony Law is on his way to Teesdale for the 2015 Barnard Castle Comedy Festival. Teesdale comedy fans will get to see the Canadian stand-up's
brand new show first when he performs at The Witham in Barnard Castle on
Saturday 18 July.
His show, dubbed Nonsense In Progress, takes place at 3pm, with live comedy running
throughout the day in the venue's main hall.
Festival Director Peter Dixon
said: "I saw Tony at last summer's Edinburgh Festival and was blown
away. His charismatic
performance electrifies a room and we're sure he'll be a big hit at our first
ever comedy festival in Barnard Castle."
One of the best and most
exciting live comics performing in the UK today,
Law's cheerfully absurd humour has endeared him to both live and TV audiences
around the world.
His recent TV and radio credits include Have I Got News For You (BBC1), Never
Mind The Buzzcocks, Heading Out, The Culture Show, Charlie Brooker’s Weekly
Wipe (BBC2), 8 Out
Of 10 Cats (C4), The Alternative
Comedy Experience (Comedy Central), Tony Law’s Surreal Guide To Surreal Comedy (Radio 4 Extra), Loose Ends and Infinite
Monkey Cage (Radio 4).
The Canadian stand-up is a
three-time Chortle-award winner and was a Foster's Edinburgh Comedy Award
2012 nominee.
Law comes to the North East as part of the first
ever Barnard Castle Comedy Festival.
It was announced last week that Radio 4 star Alex
Horne would close the festival on Saturday 18 July, with more huge names to be
announced in the coming weeks.
Earlybird day tickets for the festival are on sale now, priced
£45.
