Kev's Comedy Club - Mike Newall + Carl Jones + Alfie Carter + Kevin Dewsbury

MIKE NEWALL

Local Stockport lad, now based in Manchester, Mike Newall is a charming and laid-back comedian with well-crafted jokes and a wonderful dry delivery. This is observational comedy at its best with razor sharp timing combined with a keen sense of dark sarcasm.

He most recently appeared on Britain’s Got Talent where he impressed the judges so much that Simon Cowell said..it was like an Oasis concert where the music ran out and Liam decides to tell a few jokes!

In 2010 he performed his first Edinburgh Fringe Show Mr Famous followed in 2011 with his show Mike Newall’s Get Better Box

That same year he headlined the prestigious Big Value Comedy early show then returned in 2013 with his show Six Weddings.

In 2013 he was personally asked to be the support act for Alun Cochrane’s 2012-2013 Moments of Alun tour.

In 2016 & 2017 Mike took two more shows to the Fringe; High on Gravy and Desert Boot-leg Island Disks.

In 2019 his brand new Edinburgh show titled Mike Newall: Re:Newall received rave reviews.

Manchester has had more than its fair share of comedy heritage over the years, he is without doubt the latest smooth talking, globetrotting Manc export and could even go on to become the greatest. Mike has that rare knack of being like the boy the next door but with huge star quality. He’s like your best, most humorous friend – only funnier!

Storytelling comes easy and the laughs are sharp...off-beat surreal and clever observations
