Christmas Comedy

Problematic Pub Comedy Club is running a series of Christmas comedy nights at 11 Strand, Swansea SA1 2AE, with the late show on Saturday 19 December. It's part of a wider run of festive dates they've got lined up across the city: an early show at 5:30 pm and a later one at 7:30 pm on Saturday 5 December, and late shows at 7:30 pm on the 18th and 19th. The club describes these as festive chaos for Swansea's party season — stand-up, drinks and a Christmas atmosphere aimed squarely at comedy fans.

The bill for the night is Mick Ferry, Sandro Ford and Stefan Evans. Ferry is a veteran Manchester act and compere who started out in the late 1990s; he made the So You Think You're Funny? finals in 1998 and won Best Live Stand-Up in 2013. His TV credits include Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow and John Bishop's Only Joking!, alongside numerous Edinburgh Fringe appearances. He's joined by Sandro Ford, the fiery co-host of the Problematic Pub Podcast, known for his catchphrase 'Anything else?'.

Tickets are £22 general admission plus a £0.55 ticket service fee. For the late shows on the 18th and 19th, the start time is 7:30 pm with doors opening at 6:30 pm.
