Justin Moorhouse WIP, Saddleworth 8pm show

Justin Moorhouse tests out new material at Off The Rails Comedy Club Saddleworth Justin Moorhouse‘s work in progress show at Off The Rails Comedy Club Saddleworth with support from Tom Taylor (‘Wave after wave of funny’ The Scotsman). Fully seated. 18+ Proper sweary, swearing. We want everyone to have a great night so please pop your phone on silent and don’t chat whilst the show is in progress. Thanks! Sorry, but we can only reallocate or refund if the show is cancelled. What do we mean by ‘Work In Progress’? These shows aren’t the finished product. The comedians will be fine tuning them before they take them out on tour. You may see them occasionally referring to notes and there may well be the odd gag that doesn’t make the final edit. The advantage for our customers is you get two shows (roughly 50 to 60 minutes each) for less thatn it would cost you to see one. You also get to hear the brand new gags and routines long before anyone else. Justin Moorhouse is an acclaimed English stand-up comedian, actor, and radio presenter from Manchester.
