Hilarity Bites presents... Chris Ramsey & Carl Hutchinson December 13, 2010

Chris Ramsey

Chris Ramsey strides onto the stage and you immediately know you are in safe hands; his high-energy delivery, hugely engaging manner and off-the-cuff style have made him one of the most exciting acts to hit the circuit in recent years. Upbeat and lightning fast, he commands the stage with the tenacity of a comic with twice his experience.

A finalist in the 2008 Chortle Student Comedian of the Year Awards, and Nominated for the Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year Award 2009, Chris is a regular compere at some of the biggest comedy clubs in the UK and has supported Lee Mack, Russell Kane and Stephen K Amos on national tours. He has been a guest on QRadio and Kerrang Radio and has provided live warm-up for Channel 4’s The Gok Wan Road Show.

This year Chris performed his first solo show at the Edinburgh Fringe, appeared on Russell Howard's Good News, has been the support act on Al Murray's nationwide tour of some of the biggest venues in the country, was the studio warm-up for John Bishop's Britain and has just filmed a TV pilot with Chris Addison. Phew!

Not content with just one award he headed to Camden in October 2008 to become the Magners Pub Comedian of the Year. In February 2009 Carl was nominated for the Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year.

“The phrase ‘One to watch’ gets bandied around a lot on the comedy circuit, but Carl is one of a few new comedians where it actually applies. An up and coming talent, Carl takes the mundane and makes it down right hilarious.” - Evening Gazette

"His tone and manner was very funny as he was almost argumentative." - BBC Comedy

MC Matt Reed

Born and bred in Sunderland, Matt's affable style has won him fans across the UK. He effortlessly plays with the crowd with a natural rapport that is found in few comics. Matt, always ready, never disappointing will always make a good gig - great.

As pleasant as he is wonderfully brutal Matt is a welcome addition to any comedy night entertaining the crowd while skillfully destroying any heckler that crosses his path.
