COMING up at Skipton Town Hall on July 5 is Skipton Comedy Live.

Colin Manford is the master of ceremonies, and stand-ups are comedian, worrier, gamer, horror fan and ghost hunter, Barry Dodds and Massai Graham, a multi-award winning one-liner comedian who hails from the West Midlands. Massai won funniest joke of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2016.

Completing the line-up is Allyson June Smith. A self-confessed over sharer, Allyson serves up a potent observational cocktail of wit, bite and shame. Allyson’s comedic gift is making every room, whatever the size, feel like an intimate group therapy session.

The Hub bar will be open from 7pm with regular drinks intervals throughout the show.

Skipton Comedy Live is at 8pm on Friday, July 5. Tickets £10. Suitable for 18s and over, details at: https://skiptontownhall.co.uk/
