About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Classy purple

I started doing stand up comedy in 2005 after taking Dave Purdy's Priceless Comedy course.
I've played at The Big Chill festival, Contact Theatre, Mirth on Monday, The Frog and Bucket, The Big Chill House, D Bees in Winsford, The Welly in Hull, The Buzz at Sale Waterside Arts Centre and at the night I put on with Guy Thomas under the name of Sporadic Laughter - we do regular gigs at The King's Arms in Salford and The Community Theatre in Saltburn on Sea
What other people said:
Frank Sidebottom "Fantastic..at The King's Arms"
Agraman ( Legendary Buzz promoter and the man who gave Harry Hill, Jack Dee and Eddie Izzard their first Manchester gigs) "Nick is a wild and wacky wordsmith who has a bright future ahead in stand up"
Rob Riley, North West promoter "Well conceived, original, tightly written routines make Nick the ideal candidate for more stage time. Give him that and I'm sure a full time career beckons'
Chris Coop (Steve Coogan and Caroline Aherne's first promoter)"A top comedy performance"
Author and performer of Mr. Nice, Howard Marks says: "Nick is a hugely inventive comedian who takes the audience into his own world for an unforgettable journey"
"Total laid back delivery with pauses that Pinter would be proud of...inducing snorts of laughter from the entire audience". Des Sharples, Mirth on Monday
"Dry, wry, brilliant!" - Vince Atta, La Tasca Comedy
