Stevie Martin has her final outing for Clout, there’s comedy in a Car Park at Red Arch and Creatures celebrates the best of Manchester.
Stevie Martin has had a heck of a time since she first performed her show ‘Clout’ at the Edinburgh Fringe back in 2024. She’s since appeared in Mitchell and Webb’s new sketch show and won hearts and minds on Taskmaster. The show, which is a multi-media mash-up of fantastical ideas, pop culture baths and off-rails trains of thought, Martin is one of the most original performers around, and this is her masterpiece.
Finish of your week and start the new month with the best in new Mancunian talent on Sunday at Creatures. One of the advantages of Creatures operating 7 nights a week as a comedy club is the stage time it affords the young comics of the city as they try to find their way. The likes of Joe Lycett, Jamali Maddix and Amy Gledhill started out in Manchester so pop down to see what might be coming next.
