About the show

Join Backwell Playhouse for North Somerset’s longest-running and best Comedy Night. Our November event is headlined by Ian Crawford, and supported by Joe Capper, Owain Graham and Ian Bowden."Mr Capper’s comedy feels like the lovechild of Brassic and Mike Skinner - streetwise, chaotic, and full of charm - with a distinctly Devonian potential shining through." - The People’s Comedy What can be said about Owain Graham that won’t take 3-5 business days? This stuttering savant blends charm and wit with a disabled man’s outlook on the world. Ian Bowden’s dress sense belies his cheeky word play. His structured one-liners often have set-ups based in truth, but he stresses the punchlines are not!

Cutlery Safety Expert Ian Crawford is a painstakingly prepared health and safety professional who has turned his attention to the nation’s most hazardous arena: the cutlery drawer. Expect practical demonstrations, unlikely scenarios, and a surprising amount of hilarity & nonsense! Ian serves up the essential life skills you never knew you needed - delivered with deadpan precision, a sharp edge and a gentle comedic bite.

This event is not suitable for under 16’s and may contain explicit content. Performances may be recorded and posted on social media.
