OnFife Comedy Café Online!
Join us in June’s OnFife Comedy Café – Online! While we can’t see live shows in person, this is the next best thing to enjoy a Friday night in with some live comedians streamed to your screen!
So, pour yourself a drink, grab some snacks, and settle down in the comfort of your own home – at only £5 per device, it certainly beats another night of Netflix!
The line-up for Friday 25 June includes some well-known and best loved names – compered by Raymond Mearns, who was described as “Exceptionally Funny and Cathartic” by The Scotsman, has been on the UK comedy circuit for years – performing at venues across the country, including very successful Fringe shows since 2011.
Next up is Martin Mor from Northern Ireland who was a successful circus performer who turned his attention on the unsuspecting comedy circuit. With over 30 years-experience as a professional performer, Martin has established himself as one of the UK’s most popular and in-demand comedians.
In April 2016 Martin was part of a team that set the world record for the highest altitude comedy show by performing at 5,300m/17,600ft at Mount Everest basecamp.
Very much the comedian’s comedian, Martin has been the support act of choice for; Frankie Boyle, Jack Dee, Lee Evans, Jasper Carrot, Patrick Kielty, Johnny Vegas, Steve Coogan, and once Tina Turner.
Then we will see Viv Gee - a stand-up comedian, performance poet and actor who has performed stand-up comedy all over the UK. She is resident MC at Yesbar Comedy Club in Glasgow and has compered many events including T in the Park, Maydaze and Glasgow’s New Year Celebrations. She was also a finalist in Channel 4’s So You Think You’re Funny and the BBC Open Mic Awards.
And finally, George Zach is a Greek professional comedian based in Newcastle, UK. He’s performed internationally, in festivals such as Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne and Edinburgh with critically acclaimed shows to sell-out crowds, as well as in comedy clubs across the UK and Europe.
He has also done tour support for Larry Dean, Chris McCausland and Luisa Omielan (all of whom have appeared on Live At The Apollo) and has also been a guest on Eddie Izzard's Marathons for Humanity project.
