DAWN BAILEY
Dawn is a forty something (ahem just turned 50) Mum who views life through happy specs and giddy knickers (her own words).
An original performer, Dawn won the XS Manchester Radio Comedian of the Year in 2016, which led to her presenting a show on the station
A likeable and affable nature, Dawn is a regular on the UK comedy circuit and performs for some of the most reputable promoters in the Country.
Dawn’s honesty regarding life and love are raw, straight to the point and comes with a no-holds-barred delivery. She is a merry maker and definitely loves to have a damn good chuckle
Pin sharp anecdotes from a life juggling a career, kids, attending weekly slimming club meetings and the joys of involuntary flatulence… she’s a very funny lady”- The BBCD

Maybe the venue could consider keeping a stock of canned alcoholic cocktails in the fridge? This would have been a preferred option for the women in our group.

Friendly, welcoming and warm people. From bar staff to compère. Great night had by myself and three friends who will be back in May as we can’t make April due to other commitments. Maybe a more obvious sign post or banner to welcome guests not familiar with the venue. The mix of comedians pleased all members of the audience from what I could see. Can’t wait to attend again in the further.
