First FCUM comedy fundraising night at Broadhurst Park



Comedy returns on Thursday 20 August 2015 with the first FC United comedy night of the season and the first fundraising night at Broadhurst Park. Compere and opening act is Smug Roberts of Phoenix Nights and Looking For Eric fame, so this promises to be a great night. We have two excellent acts lined up plus a superb compere so we expect tickets to sell quickly. In fact all previous nights have completely sold out so please get your tickets early for this one.

Comedy award winner Alex Boardman headlines the night. He’s a fantastic comic with that very rare mix of wit and charm, who has been receiving nationwide rave reviews. Improvised witticism from this acerbic Mancunian will have you rolling with laughter. A veteran of the Madchester scene, his loved-up reminisces and tall tales are legendary. Alex is supported by Dan Nightingale, fresh from the Altitude festival, Austria, Edinburgh Fringe and soon to star at Kendal Calling. Dan will entertain and delight you in equal measures.

This really has all the makings of a great night out and with it being the first fundraising event in our new home, let’s pack the place out and have a good laugh in the process.

Tickets are just £12 including food. Doors open 7.00 for a 7.45 start. Book the date in your diary now - Thursday 20 August 2015. To reserve tickets please contact Vinny Thompson on 07792 833086. Tickets are also available from the membership stall at all FC United home games and can also be purchased via debit/credit card by calling the FC office on 0161 769 2005.
