Shoe Cake Comedy presents a brand new night of comedy at The Black Swan Inn, York ....
THE HALLS OF RIDICULOUS bring a breath of fresh air to the UK comedy scene, combining lightning-fast improvised comedy with high-octane character sketches. But here's the twist - every bit of hilarity is conjured up on the spot, fuelled by the audience's suggestions, ideas, and occasionally, wonderfully weird imaginations.
Featuring Chris Lumb (as seen on BBC Three's Russell Howard's Good News) and Phil Allan-Smith (as seen on BBC One's This is My House), The Halls of Ridiculous grace many stages across the UK and have been supporting the brilliant Russell Kane on numerous tour dates throughout 2024.
In 2022, their Edinburgh Show 'The Halls of Ridiculous' earned a stellar 5-star review from EdFringe Review, hailed as 'a euphoric experience, the best show of the Fringe'.
Riding high on this success, they went on to sell out shows at the 2022, 2023, & 2024 Leicester Comedy Festival. Their comedic prowess was recognised in 2023 when they clinched the 'Best Alternative Act' title at The Yorkshire Comedy Awards and in the same year also secured the Southport Comedy Awards' prestigious 'New Comedian of The Year Award'. But that's not all - these versatile comedians also entertain audiences aboard various cruise ships, from Mexico to Hawaii.
Join them live at The Black Swan Inn, York on Friday November 29th for a riotous evening of RIDICULOUS improvised sketch!
The night will also feature a handful of specially selected stand up comedians too.
The show starts at 8pm ... see you there.

"Absolutely outstanding from the moment they grace the stage" - Really Funny Comedy
"An Amazing show of comedy, characters & sketches. Exactly what a festival show should contain. Loads of it. Brilliant, very funny show" - Patrick Monahan
"Brilliant stuff!" - Russell Kane
"The Halls of Ridiculous bring variety, brilliance, and guaranteed laughs to the biggest of bills” - Comedy Hotspot
“The best show of the Fringe so far. Best night of my life. A euphoric experience. Amazing.” - ★★★★★ EdFringe Review
“ In a room that can be notoriously tricky to open, The Halls had the audience rapt throughout their set, with some big belly laughs and top-class improvisation. The audience weren’t sure what to expect before they went on, but they were still talking about them when the show finished!” - Hilarity Bites

Strictly Over 18's : The show may contain bad language and topics of an adult nature. Not for the easily offended.
Doors Open at 7:30PM
Starts at 8:00PM
