Phil Ellis’s Excellent Comedy Show is on at Chorley Theatre on Friday 12 April

Preston comedian Phil Ellis is bringing his new tour to Chorley.

Phil Ellis’s Excellent Comedy Show was nominated for Best Show at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards and won the 2023 Malcolm Hardee Award for Comic Originality.

This show – said to be his most creative and cost-effective to date – sees Phil deliver stand-up, songs and chaotic nonsense. It’s described as ‘an hour of barnstorming stand-up and fun from the North West’s most punctual working-class comedian’.
