Barking Tales Comedy Night @ Zombie Shack

Details

Hello again you lovely scoundrels!

Am pleased to report that £92 profit was made at the last Barking Tales so is shimmying straight off to Manchester Mind. That's better than a kick in the fanny innit!

Barking Tales is back on the 2nd of December (those of you that haven't been yet - It's a comedy night in Manchester where all the comedians tell stories / do material about mental health and anything that you wouldn't usually hear in most other comedy clubs... It's a lot more fun than it sounds! Being as most of the acts and audiences have / do experience mental health issues I try my best to make sure it's a really comfortable atmosphere for everyone involved and without sounding like a cheeseboard - it's built up a little community of lovely folk that come. It's a very small step in helping to reduce the stigma that still surrounds mental health and shows that there is funny to be had in such topics.)

ANYWAY, BACK TO DECEMBER 2ND - Holy moly what a treat we've got in store for your lovely little faces in THE FINAL SHOW BEFORE CHRISTMAS. Be sure to grab your tickets pronto for this one as I'm 97.5% sure it'll sell out. That's right.

The truly superb RAY PEACOCK is headlining -

In 2007 Peacock began presenting his iTunes & Chortle hosted The Ray Peacock Podcast alongside fellow comedians Ed Gamble and former EastEnders actor Raji James. It was later succeeded by The Peacock and Gamble Podcast, which is also hosted by Chortle. A surprise one-off reunion show was released on 13th Sept 2010 to celebrate the 50th episode on the same day that the Peacock & Gamble Podcast episode 50 was released.

After three consecutive fringe shows with Peacock & Gamble, Peacock returned to solo stand-up for the 2014 Edinburgh Fringe with the acclaimed show "Here Comes Trouble". It subsequently went on a UK tour in 2014-2015.

Peacock now presents a Paranormal Podcast 'The Parapod' with comedian Barry Dodds

In his 2014 tour "Here Comes Trouble" Peacock revealed details of suicide attempts earlier that year, mental health and relationship issues, and has subsequently written about these topics at length for Mental Health Today Magazine and the British Comedy Guide, and spoken about them on Sky News and his radio shows.
