Mick Ferry may deliver his ‘Mancunian miserablist’ humour with a sour face, but he is the man often described as the ‘comedian’s comedian’.
But the audience at Huddersfield’s Lawrence Batley Theatre can judge for themselves when the comic appears in next month’s comedy cellar event on Thursday, April 9.
Mick, famed for his observational wit and grumbles about everyday annoyances, has appeared on Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow and the Comedy Store as well as alongside Eric Cantona in Ken Loach’s paean to the joys of friendship and football, Looking for Eric.
He shares the stage at the LBT with self-deprecating comic Steve Bugeja, who mines his own social nightmares for comedy treasure.
Following his victory at the 2013 BBC New Comedy Awards he admits to getting drunk on complimentary white wines and stumbling into Burger King holding his trophy and demanding free chips.
The comedy cellar event starts at 8pm. Tickets are £7 and £9 from www.thelbt.org or 01484 430528.
