Laugh Out Proud

 Featuring the best in established and upcoming acts from the community on the UK comedy circuit.   This is night is all about giving acts and audiences alike a fun and friendly place to express themselves, kick back, have a laugh and good time in an inclusive and welcoming comedy club environment.  Whether it's comedy, cabaret or anything in between – Laugh Out Proud is the queer night out you're looking for.  Laugh Out Proud at Storyhouse will feature the stand-up delights of Mark Cram, Aaron Twitchen and headlined by the musical comedy whirlwind that is Jenny Hart!  Do note that lines ups are subject to change    Mark Cram Mark is quite the all-rounder; with both a killer set and strong MCing chops. For the last few years Mark has been plying his comedy trade across the UK. Constantly evolving, usually unpredictable; he is garnering positive reactions everywhere he goes.  Mark thrills crowds with his tales of dead-end jobs, his family and being the less than grateful winner of Bedford Comedian of the Year.   “A Masterclass in comedy design” Newbury Weekly News     Aaron Twitchen is a stand up, actor, presenter and living stereoptype.  Seriously talented. Hilarious, warm, energetic and capable of busting some awesome moves, Twitchen is a Quadruple Threat, the kind of new act that should have talent scouts excited and other comedians feeling nervous. The Skinny   Positive, fun, feel-good SGFringe   Twitchen wonderful, brilliant fun and you'll definitely leave with a smile ThreeWeeks    Jenny Hart As we know from the media, issues of gender beyond the binary are delicate and nuanced and must be addressed with a careful sensitivity.   Well Jenny Hart says bollocks – quite literally – to that.   Jenny's a bold, brash, shameless presence full of gloriously inappropriate jokes and twisted, dark songs gleefully mocking some awful things. It's a ribald, vulgar set, full of crude knockabout humour delivered with blunt vitality.  And an absolute crowd-pleaser.
