Here's who you can catch at the Laughter Factory this September
Stephen Carlin, Pierre Hollins and Sally-Anne Hayward headline the UAE’s comedy club this month…
Planning a night out? Why not make it a fun one filled with tonnes of belly laughter and stitches (the good kind).
You don’t have to look far as Laughter Factory, the Middle East’s longest-running comedy club has just announced its next line-up of comedians.
The month of September sees Stephen Carlin, Pierre Hollins and Sally-Anne Hayward providing the humour that’s guaranteed to tickle your funny bones from Thursday September 17 to Friday September 25.
Meet the comedians
Stephen Carlin
The comedian has just completed his latest show, ‘Pickwickian’ at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival which was completely sold out. His growing fan base is thanks to his original, insightful material and his accomplished delivery done in a deadpan Scottish brogue. Carlin has supported Stewart Lee, Stephen Merchant and Tom Stade on their British tours and has even authored a Comedy Blog, which hilariously exposes the many facets of a life lived in comedy.
Pierre Hollins
Pierre is a comedy circuit favourite and has headlined clubs throughout the UK, Europe, Middle East and Asia. Not only is he an enjoyable comedian, but he used to perform as a comedy acrobat and unicyclist. His first guitar was a one-string electric squash racquet which he still uses at festival gigs. Easy-going and joyful, his acts are laced and juxtaposed with pathos and reality that only an experienced comedian can bring.
Sally-Anne Hayward
Exceptionally funny, Sally-Anne Hayward has performed stand up comedy in all five continents of the world. Her confident persona and quick wit have rapidly made her a much sought-after comedian and she’s a regular at Glastonbury Festival plus an accomplished radio presenter with stage and TV acting credentials. The award-winning comedian has appeared at a numerous amount of Edinburgh Fringe shows and is currently supporting Sarah Millican on tour.
