April welcomes back one of the funniest headliners out there.
Steve Shanyaski.
Steve's inherent warmth and cheeky, roguish twinkle shines through his material, elevating him to quite another level as a performer.
Combining surreal observations with wildly tangential imaginings, Shanyaski's off kilter set pieces have audiences fully immersed in 'Stevie World' as he leads them, Pied Piper-like down the charming avenues of his inner mind. His whirlwind performances and thrilling routines have constantly proven a hit with even the quietest crowds… The key to his act being his energy and silliness. Steve is a 'go to' headline act for all the major comedy bookers including The Stand clubs in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Newcastle, The highly regarded chain of Glee Clubs and Manchester's Frog and Bucket. Shanyaski has a strong track record at the Edinburgh Fringe after his 2009 debut with 'Reality Check'. Shanyaski returned in 2011 with his 4 star-reviewed show 'Steve Shanyaski's Life Survival Bible' which proved to be a popular choice amongst the late night festival goers and critics.
Audiences left happy and glowing after an hour of his high energy quirkiness and slick confident routines. This was an opinion shared by critics, who repeatedly awarded him with 4 stars and gushing compliments.
Steve has performed to audiences as diverse as bikers festivals and the Royal Variety Performance and his TV appearances include Comedy Store presents… and Jason Manford's Comedy Rocks.
"One of my favourite comedians" Jason Manford "A star in the making" City Life.
Joining Steve we are delighted to welcome back the very funny, Dominic Woodward.
Dom is a breath of fresh air on the comedy circuit. His witty charm and clever tales make him one not to be missed. Dom deals with every day issues, relating to the audience with his obvservations on life. Originally setting out to be an actor, Dom realised along the way that he could make people laugh far easier than he could a high flying job in Hollywood (we've all got to settle sometimes) and he has never looked back since, well only once or twice!! Dom is a modern man and an extremely amusing comic, bound to storm any event. Just what we were all waiting for.
