A sensational live performer, Yorkshire man, marathon runner and former (double award-winning) Time Out Comedian of the Year, Paul Tonkinson has long upheld his esteemed reputation as one of the finest stand-ups the UK has to offer. With a unique and distinctive style, Tonkinson is noted for his effervescent physicality and skilful impressions, which bring alive exuberant, tender comic reflections on love, family and the day-to-day idiosyncrasies of 21st century life. A plethora of first class material, combined with tremendous charm and irrepressible, infectious energy make for a formidable talent. 
“Nobody makes me laugh like Paul Tonkinson“ Michael McIntyre  “One of the best sights in comedy.” Seann Walsh 
2021 Scottish Comedian of the Year, Liam Farrelly started performing stand up while he was still at school! His meteoric rise through the comedy ranks has seen him attracting a lot of media and public attention including appearances on BBC’s Live At The Apollo in January 2023. An already powerful and original new comedic voice, he is clearly destined for big things so catch him working live and up close – while you still can! 
 ‘Impressive stuff!‘ Beyond The Joke ★★★★★ Entertainment Now
