Character clowning and prime silliness in store at comedy club
Gigs sell out regularly now at Matt's Comedy Club, Worthing's family-friendly night out, and they're promising a cracker of a night for their next show on Thursday 28 April.
Headliner will be wonderful character comedian Joanna Neary (below right), who comes highly recommended following a string of Edinburgh Festival shows, and TV appearances on That Mitchell & Webb Look and Skins.
Expect a succession of loopy characters – imagine Morwenna Banks meets Joyce Grenfell and Alan Bennett with a side helping of Bjork – plus a Pan's People-esque dance spoof that has to be seen to be believed.
Head for http://www.joneary.co.uk/ to find out more about Sussex-based Jo, a regular at Brighton's Komedia.
Called "a national treasure" by The Argus, The Guardian also praised Jo's "highly original songs and monologues".
Support sees a return for charmingly silly songsmith Jenny Lockyer (left) and there are the daft ditties, poems and gags of host Russ Bravo to get you started.
