ROSS
NOBLE -
Saturday 21st October 2006 - Opera House |
After his visit last year to the Opera House, Ross Noble
was a big hit, so much so that he's been given six nights
in a row to do his show. This superb comedian is incredibly
witty, somewhat mad, and certainly unconventional. He's
not everybody's cup of tea, but manchestertheatres.com
certainly recommend you go and see him for yourself. If
you like laughing, you'll like Ross Noble. |

JASON
MANFORD - URBAN LEGEND -
Sat 21st Oct 2006 - The Lowry |
| After
sell out runs in Edinburgh and the West End, multi-award
winning comedian Jason Manford brings his Perrier nominated
show, ‘Urban Legend’, home to Manchester. We're
all familiar with Urban Legends; the scary ones and the
silly ones - some we are sure are made up and others we're
convinced happened to someone we know. In a frighteningly
funny show Jason sets out to explore the myths and nonsense
surrounding Urban Legends whilst retaining a healthy respect
for them. |
