“THAT’S NOT FUNNY!” Comedy in Age of Woke


Sunday, November 17, 2024 at 2:00 PM

Is it ok to laugh at everything and everybody? Is there any person, or issue that is off limits? The Comedy world has been sucked into the Culture War battleground and we are all suffering as a result.

For our November Meetup we will be welcoming guest speaker Andy Shaw. Andy is the co-founder (along with Andrew Doyle) and organiser of Comedy Unleashed, which gives a stage to free-thinking comedians and supports comedians who actually believe nothing is off-limits in comedy. As Andy says, “it’s the audience who decides what’s funny. Laughter is liberating.”

Join CCC Manchester for stimulating and fresh conversation and debate! We’re a friendly, welcoming bunch, and many folks even choose to stay well past 4pm to continue the discussion! Grab a drink at the bar and come upstairs for some lively, open and honest chat. All good faith opinions are welcomed and respected. We don’t charge for our events but we do ask for a small cash donation on arrival to help pay for the room and Meetup membership.

Comedy Unleashed hosts monthly gigs in Manchester, Leeds, London and Edinburgh and they have a popular YouTube channel.
