SUMMARY:Gerry K + Silky
DESCRIPTION:SUPPORT: JOEL WALKER\nCOMPÈRE: JAMES COOK \nGERRY K: Anecdotal\, observational and refreshingly honest in style\, Gerry’s comedy is enriched by a somewhat unique perspective: Real name Gerry Kyei (pronounced “Chay”)\, Gerry was born in the East End\, but grew up in rural Essex\, as a rare black face in an almost totally white and very parochial area (a million miles away from the traditional Essex stereotype towns like Harlow\, Basildon\, Romford and Southend). \nIn addition to providing some truly original insights into life in rural England\, these early experiences have ensured Gerry’s comedy delights an incredible range of audiences often confounds expectations. \nStarting in comedy as the result of a dare\, his rise to headline act was a quick one\, scooping a range of accolades along the way including; The Comedy Store’s ‘King Gong’\, Metrolife Comedy Newcomer\, and The Comedy Café’s Best Newcomer Awards. \nNow a regular and in-demand headline act both in the UK and overseas\, Gerry has played all of the nation’s leading clubs including The Comedy Store\, Jongleurs\, Komedia. \nPAUL ‘SILKY’ WHITE is a comedian and musician from Liverpool. Since 1994 he has avoided adulthood\, wealth and financial security by doing something he loves instead. \nHe has performed all over the world and TV appearances include The Stand-Up Show (BBC)\, The World Stands Up (Paramount) and the Comics Lounge (AUS). \nFestival Appearances Include Glastonbury\, Bestival\, Camp Bestival\, The Big Chill\, Green Man\, God’s Kitchen Global Gathering\, Kendal Calling\, Comedy Festivals including Edinburgh Fringe\, Glasgow\, Leicester\, Melbourne and the world’s smallest comedy festival in Frampton Mansell\, which is a real place\, and not a character in Downton Abbey. He’s been reported dead to the police\, played in the house band at the Kilkenny Festival in Ireland\, and been Dr Who’s backing guitarist. \n“Skilful and entertaining … Silky’s audience banter is sans pareil”\nTime Out \n“funny and clever”\nTim Minchin \n“Always brilliant”\nMetro
