Comedy crackers at Theatr Clwyd and William Aston Hall this Spring with stand-up shows a plenty.

Every month Theatr Clwyd hosts a Comedy Club showcasing the finest comedians on the comedy circuit.

It’s a chance to see some famous faces that you may have spotted on television as well as some new faces you might not be so familiar with.

With tickets from just £10 it’s an excellent night out. April’s delights include Jenny Collier, Dave Longley and Raul Kohli.

Finally, May brings Rob Rouse, Nina Gilligan, Simon Lomas and Dan Tiernan.

Lucy Porter brings her brand new stand-up show to Theatr Clwyd this March.

Wake-Up Call (16 March) is a show about revelations, realisations and epiphanies – both large and small. S

ubjects covered include: Bin collection schedules, the novels of Jean Rhys, cats, school fair booze tombolas, the Scottish Enlightenment, pressure washers and Huel. It’s an exuberant, silly show with some wisdom sprinkled on top.

Over at William Aston Hall, Jason Byrne brings his new show The Ironic Bionic Man (1 Oct).

Jason is officially Bionic, “ironically” of course, as Jason, the accident-prone, general unfortunate gobsh*te (to no want of his own) is now half man, half machine. Born with a cock eye (then straightened), his lung collapsed (it was blown back up and sealed with metal pins), appendix removed, cartilage replaced in his knee from a poo-on-the-loo accident, arm dislocated by a wave, heart now functioning on six stents.

Newly announced Ed Byrne: Tragedy Plus Time (17 Nov) comes to Wrexham. Attributed to Mark Twain, humour is defined as Tragedy Plus Time. Come and join Ed as he tests that formula by mining the most tragic event in his life for laughs.

Frankie Boyle’s Lap of Shame (28-29 June) and Sarah Millican: Late Bloomer (6 Oct) have all sold out! But do get in touch with box office to sign up to the waiting list.
