“With Philip Simon as compere comedy is guaranteed.” (The Jewish Chronicle)

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

Reviews for previous Drew Taylor events
An enjoyable evening, think maybe comedy would be suited for ages 18 plus rather than a younger audience. Maybe this can be changed from time to time

Really great night, all the comics were on form. Side splitting humour at its best. We’ll be back next month.

Brilliant evening, so many laughs. The MC was excellent at engaging with us and made us laugh loads. All the acts were great, Mike Reed, Gilly W and we were very lucky to have Leroy Brito headlining. Love the venue.
