The Empire Comedy Club returns with a top line-up and big laughs at Blackburn Empire Theatre!Your host and MC Colin Manford is one of the North West’s strongest compères - warm, quick and fearless with the room, with writing credits including 8 Out of 10 Cats and Walk on the Wild Side.
On the bill: Rachel Creeger, a multi-award-winning comedian, writer, director and broadcaster, and resident MC at London’s Comedy Upstairs at the Adam & Eve. She also co-hosts the podcast Jew Talkin’ To Me? and the Neighbours superfan podcast Leaving Erinsborough.
Also appearing is Jack Kelly - a Manchester-based stand-up originally from Blackpool, described as “a sensational stand-up”. Heard on BBC Radio 2, Jack’s packed with sharp wit and brilliantly observed storytelling.
Headlining the night is Daliso Chaponda, the Malawian-born comedian who shot to international attention as a Britain’s Got Talent 2017 finalist (including Amanda Holden’s Golden Buzzer) and went on to finish third. Expect smart, insightful stand-up with huge laughs - shaped by global touring and razor-sharp observation.
