Comedian Joanne McNally brings her Pinotphile stand-up show, following the success of 'The Prosecco Express', to the Sunderland Empire.
Joanne McNally brings her stand-up show Pinotphile to the Sunderland Empire on Friday 8 January 2027. It's part of the Pinotphile tour, which she's extended into 2027, so this is one of the dates that keeps the run going well into the new year.
Pinotphile follows the success of her previous show, The Prosecco Express. Since then, she's kept herself busy 'ruining men's lives (and her own)' — still single, still unfertilised, and armed with a collection of irreverent, ridiculous and hilarious war stories. The set works its way through situationships, revenge, frenemies and rejection, all in the same style that's made her a regular on the circuit. The London Standard called it 'terrifyingly funny' and the Irish Examiner described it as 'joyously nuts'.
Beyond the stage, McNally also hosts a podcast, so there's a bit more to her work than just the live shows. Pinotphile is the touring version of that material, and the Sunderland date is one of the stops on the extended run. If you've seen The Prosecco Express, this is the next chapter; if you haven't, it's a good place to start with her stand-up.
