A couple of years back there was a surprise gig for ‘America’s funnyman’ Neil Hamburger at The Pub/Zoo that, even though announced quite late in the day, sold out and those of us that unfortunately missed out were left to rue the missed opportunity to see one of the world’s most unique comic personas. It was such a one off and rare performance that it was thought the oddball stand up might never darken these shores again. So it is with great pleasure that we can announce that not only will Neil Hamburger be back in a bigger venue later in 2017 but that he will be performing alongside his long time collaborator, and co-creator of ‘Tim and Eric Awesome show, Great Job!’, Tim Heidecker. Heidecker has performed to sold out crowds across the US and Canada and will make his UK debut at Gorilla in September in what is shaping up to be the biggest comedy event of the year, certainly for Manchester, if not the country. Book immediately as this one will sell out.

Sun 3 Sep, Gorilla, 54-56 Whitworth Street West, Manchester M1 5WW. Tel: 0161 826 2998, 7.30pm, £25, www.seetickets.com
