Cidermill Comedy Club

Kicking off the New Year we celebrate the return of our ever popular, and ever fun, stand-up comedy club!

February's funnies are Jenny Collier, Kev Mud, James Ellis and headlined by non-other than Steve Day!

Do note that line ups are subject to change

Steve Day

Steve Day describes himself as Britain’s only deaf comedian, if there are any others he hasn't heard. Actually there are a couple of others who have started since he wrote that joke, but it's only a joke after all.

Steve Day is a truly unique comedian - warm, witty and engaging whilst dealing with the dilemmas of being a deaf man in a hearing world. Steve went on his first national tour back in 2006, and has since been performing across the world to critical acclaim. 

"Revelatory and very funny" -The Guardian
"Warm, funny, frank and thought-provoking"- The Scotsman

Jenny Collier

The proudly Welsh Jenny Collier is a multi-award winning stand up comedian, writer and actor. An established regular on the international club and festival circuit, Jenny has supported Jason Manford, Arthur Smith, Shappi Khorsandi and Dave Johns on their UK tours and has performed in Hong Kong, the Philippines, Singapore, Switzerland and Australia where she won the Percy Award during the Adelaide Fringe. 
The sharp tongued, multi-lingual Jenny has mastered the art of deftly welcoming her audiences into a false sense of security with her lilting Welsh twang, before taking a dramatic U-turn with her outrageously raw punchlines. She leaves audiences squirming in their seats, head in hands and always wanting more. Her perfectly crafted, confident and in command performances are a favourite at clubs and festivals everywhere. An unapologetically bold, brilliant and seriously talented rising star. 

'Refreshingly original... Excellent' Broadway Baby

'Makes vitriol adorable, delivers funny dark material as though butter wouldn't melt' Wildcard Comedy

James Ellis

Award-winning comedian James Ellis is a rising star in the UK comedy scene.

His sharp observational humour and clever punchlines have won him raves reviews from audiences and critics alike.

James’ comedy is rooted in everyday life, and he has a knack for finding the funny in the mundane. A gifted write, his jokes are well-crafted and delivered with precision.

‘James Ellis is a triple threat, he’s really very bloody funny, has a great stage presence and has the best hair in the business”  Angela Barnes

‘A frightening amount of brilliant punchlines, delivered by a genuinely funny guy. I was laughing the whole time James was on and so was everyone else. Top stuff’  - Paul McCaffrey

Kev Mud made a blistering start to his stand up career by either winning or getting to the finals of most national competitions in his first year. So it's no surprise that by year three, he was booked to play on the main comedy stage at Glastonbury, and been the subject of full page articles in the national press.

Kev has shared the stage with the likes of Frankie Boyle, Sara Pascoe, Russell Howard, Ed Gamble, Kiri Pritchard McClean, Al Murray and Shaparak Khorsandi, as well as appearing on TV alongside Mark Steel, Paul Foot, Josh Pugh and Ian Stone.
