Stand-up show by Gary Delaney with brand-new jokes and his signature dark humour, for ages 16+.
Gary Delaney brings his new show, Gary on Laughing, to The Fire Station on Sunday 15 November. It's a stand-up set built on brand-new jokes, the kind he spends months writing and refining before taking them on the road. He's known for a particular brand of dark humour, and this one is no different — the venue describes it as 'utterly splendid filth', and the jokes lean as much into the filthy as they do the funny.
If you've come across him before, you'll know how he works. His last UK tour ran for two and a half years across 378 dates, and the clips from it have gathered hundreds of millions of views. He's doing it all again now with a completely new show and a fresh batch of material, so this isn't a best-of — it's the new stuff. The critics have been on board: The Scotsman said there are 'more quality jokes in one hour than most comics have in their entire careers... Quite brilliant', and The Times called him 'a master craftsman'.

One thing to keep in mind: it's for ages 16 and over, with strong language and sexual references throughout, so it's not one for a family outing. If that's your speed, though, it's a proper night of stand-up. The Fire Station is on High Street West, Sunderland SR1 3HA. Doors open at 19:00 and the show starts at 19:30, running until 21:10 with an interval in the middle. Tickets are £34.
