Burning Duck Comedy Club - York & Leeds presents Alfie Brown

www.thebasementyork.co.uk/alfie-brown

After a sell out Edinburgh run which garnered incredible reviews Alfie is taking his brand new show on Tour around the UK and Europe.

This year he is focused on family, friendship and inherited belief.

Truly subversive and almost torridly honest, a true room distilling comedian, like him, the new hour will be loving, dangerous, inquisitive and disgusting.

'It is tricky to write 350 sensible words, when you come out a show simply thinking 'Wow! F*ck! Wow!’' ★★★★★ (Scotsman).

‘The British Doug Stanhope’ ★★★★ (Guardian).
