Funny’s Funny At Frog And Bucket

Funny's Funny 2011

The latest disapproval of Funny Women’s pay-to-perform policy comes from the Frog and Bucket Comedy Club, who will play host to rival female competition Funny’s Funny on 14th June at their Manchester venue.

Dubbed ‘a celebration of the region’s female comedians’, Tuesday’s heat presents MC Kerry Leigh, Claire May, Hayley Ellis, Helen Keeler, Jen Yates, Kate McCabe, Katie Tracey, Laura Machin, Mel Moon, Soula Notos and Hanks & Conran, with Katie Mulgrew headlining the show.

On the way to the competition’s grand final there is another show in Manchester [18th June], a heat in Barnsley [26th June] and one at The Telegraph in Newcastle [8th July]. The best comics from all heats across the country will then progress into the final at The Highlight in Camden, with TV name Jo Caulfield compering that show.

Further information on Funny’s Funny, the female stand-up comedy competition, can be found on their website. Tickets for the Frog and Bucket show, which starts at 7pm, are priced at £5 and are available online here.
