On Sunday 30th March critically-acclaimed stand-up Liam Withnail makes a long-awaited return to Number 57 for two shows.
Critically-acclaimed comedian Liam Withnail is highly regarded on the circuit for his impressively slick audience banter and cheeky affable style. He is able to effortlessly master the atmosphere in any room, which has earned him the current title of the Best MC at the Scottish Comedy Awards. At the 2019 Edinburgh Fringe, Liam took home the Amused Moose Award for Outstanding Show with his critically -acclaimed show ‘Homecoming’. Having gigged as far as Canada, Japan and Iceland as well as back-to-back tours of Australia, he has become a firm favourite with audiences at the Perth and Adelaide Fringes as well as the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
Liam has over 10 million TikTok/Instagram views and hosts popular podcast Enjoy an Album, alongside Christopher Macarthur-Boyd, which was nominated for Best Podcast at the Chortle Awards 2024. He is also a regular guest on BBC Radio Scotland’s Breaking the News and has also been heard on The Good, The Bad and The Unexpected, seen on Socially Distant with Susan Calman and has written on Scot Squad.

When: Sunday 30th March
EARLY SHOW: From 4:30pm (doors at 4pm) to 6:05pm. Audience must vacate by 6:30pm.
LATE SHOW: From 7pm (doors at 6:30pm) to 8:35pm.
No late admission.
**PLEASE READ CAREFULLY**
• Tickets can be refunded or exchanged no less than 24 hours before the show.
• Line-ups can be subject to change at short notice.
• The show is in two parts separated by an interval. Doors open at 6:30pm, 30 minutes before the start time of 7pm. Please arrive before the show starts but not before 6:30pm. Attendees who arrive late will not be granted admission or a refund.
• This is NOT a standing event. All audience members must be seated while the performance is underway, unless ordering at the bar or using the toilets. When ordering at the bar, please whisper.
• Entrance and exit is via the side door only; please wait outside at the door for ticket check and to be seated by the doorman.
• You will probably have to share a table. You may not be able to sit together if the remaining chairs available are spread out. If you are particular about seating we recommend arriving as early as possible.
• Seats in the front half of the room must be filled before seating in the back half is allocated.
• Seating in the alcove at the back is reserved for the comedians and their guests only.
• Don’t talk or heckle during the performances. This rule is NOT optional. It is very distracting for both the performer and other audience members. Some performers (usually the host) might talk to the audience, but otherwise please let the comedians do the talking. Heckling does not ‘help the show’. Think of it like cinema rules: laughter, cheers, applause are all great, but talking or yelling out is not. And another cinema rule…
• Please put your phone on silent. Photos are fine but please no video or flash photography.
• If your chair is not facing the stage when you come in, please rotate it when the show starts.
• These shows are for people aged 18 and over. Due to licencing 17 year olds can attend accompanied by a parent or guardian, but we cannot allow entry to those aged 16 and under, accompanied or not. You may be asked to show ID if you do not look of age.
• Comedy Dundee does not necessarily agree or disagree with the opinions and viewpoints expressed by the comedians. Acts are booked based on their ability to make people laugh, beyond that we respect freedom of expression. If you disagree or are offended by what you hear, you are free to express this by not laughing, by leaving, or by respectfully raising your objections with the act after the show or via social media. You may not interrupt an on-going performance.
• Audience members who repeatedly break these rules will be asked to leave.
