Review: Funny Women Awards Final 2016, Koko
If we wanted to get all political about it Funny Women shouldn't exist. Comedians are comedians, why should gender even enter into it? But it does and the Funny Women organisation is clearly tapping into something. This year's final was staged at a bigger venue than usual and it was absolutely packed. For the first time in as long as I can remember I had to review a gig perched on a step at the back of a room.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 29th September 2016Funny Women final 2016 review
It's probably the glitziest of all the new act finals, taking place beneath Europe's biggest glitterball in Koko nightclub and in front of an equally sparkly backdrop proclaiming: 'Laughter is the best cosmetic' (what, even ahead of sponsors Benefit?). There's a glossy 20-page brochure and a goodie bag of make-up for all who attend, too.

Sam Wonfor, Newcastle Chronicle, 23rd September 2016The Comedy Store, Warrington review
The great thing about The Comedy Store is there are three acts, all of whom have their individual style of comedy. So if you're like me and my husband and have differing tastes in comedians- there is bound to be one that you click with from the three.
