North East Comedy News & Reviews
The Grinning Idiot Comedy Club
IT can be no joke trying to find quality live comedy in the North East, especially if you want to avoid cackling hen parties and loose-tongued hecklers emboldened by copious amounts of drink.
Review: Lee Evans, Metro Radio Arena
IT is testament to Lee Evans’ popularity that he sold out the Metro Radio Arena three times in the space of a week, before moving on to four dates at Wembley Arena, and later, London’s O2 Arena.
Tim Minchin, Ready for This, Durham Gala Theatre
IF you’re a Christian, feminist rock star who is into holistic therapies, you’ll probably hate Tim Minchin’s show. Thankfully I’m not and I loved it.
Review: Lee Evans, Newcastle Arena
SO this is stadium-comedy. Three nights at the arena, part of a tour that’s sold half a million tickets across the country.
Catch 22, Stockton's Arc & Big Mouth Comedy Club, Middlesbrough Town Hall
COMEDY fans on both sides of the river can look forward to a great Hallowe’en weekend.
Preview: Dylan Moran, Newcastle City Hall
DYLAN Moran can’t wait to see you. He has been away from the live circuit for a while, but he’s champing at the bit to return.
Comedy in Tees Valley
GREAT comics are lining up to bring a variety of great comedy to the Tees Valley. Just choose your style and pick your place, or maybe go mad and take in the lot.
So likeable, he had us laughing at United

Helping us see the funny side...
THINK Big! It’s only a few weeks old, but the Big Mouth Comedy Club Club is already the biggest comedy night in the North-east.
