Stand-up show 'Fine Whine' by Geordie comedian Carl Hutchinson, blending storytelling and physical comedy about life as a modern dad.
Carl Hutchinson is playing Vaillant Live on Friday 18 December, with the show starting at 6:30pm. He's touring his new show, Fine Whine, which he describes as his biggest and best tour yet. The material centres on his experiences as a modern-day dad and his attempts to find his place in society.
If you've not come across him before, Hutchinson is a Geordie comic who's spent years working his way up the UK circuit. He was crowned Magners Pub Comedian of the Year, won the Beat the Frog World Series competition, reached the final of So You Think You're Funny? and was nominated for the Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year Award. Critics have called him 'effortlessly hilarious', pointing to his perfectly timed suspenseful silences and plain-talking sense-making, and he made Ents24's 20 Hardest Working Comedians of 2018 list. His style blends storytelling and physical comedy with sharp characterisations, impeccable timing and energetic delivery, and he's earned a reputation as a 'powerhouse comedian' on the circuit.
