A split-bill work-in-progress comedy show from Josh Jones & Will Owen | Thursday 19th November | 7:30pm

TEST DRIVE is a brand-new comedy festival for brand-new jokes.

13 of the best comedians from the North West circuit and beyond are joining forces to present split-bill work-in-progress shows every night between the 17th-20th November.

Amongst our comics are award winners and nominees, television stars, regional regulars and character acts - it's a real who's who!

Thursday 19th November:

Josh Jones - Last One Laughing S3, 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown, Would I Lie To You?

Will Owen - Leicester Square New Comedian of the Year Winner, BBC New Comedy Award Nominee

With jokes straight out of our acts' notebooks and noggins, there'll be plenty of laughs, perhaps the occasional tumbleweed and the chance to discover emerging talent on the Manchester comedy scene. Who knows, you could be privy to the next 'Garlic Bread'...

Held inside Red Arch Bookshop (11 Red Bank, M4 4HF), the festival will adopt a relaxed, cosy, fringe-like vibe where comedians can play, experiment & most importantly, entertain you for the evening.

PLEASE NOTE: This show will take place in the main room at Red Arch, not the bookshop.

Doors 7pm | Show 7:30pm | Red Arch open from 4pm for Happy Hour!
