COMEDY YOU CAN’T IGNORE

Dave’s Leicester Comedy Festival 2016
EVENTS
NICK DOODY
Nick Doody makes his Dave’s Leicester Comedy Festival debut in a mash-up of favourites from his last few Edinburgh shows.
Expect insightful, imaginative, opinionated stand-up and the odd bit of offence that isn’t *that* gratuitous when you really think about it.
“Pure genius” The Scotsman “simply the best, unadulterate, gimmick-free hour of stand-up I’ve seen” Chortle
