Join the hilarious Al Stevenson and his pals for a night of feel-good comedy, all in support of a great cause!
As part of Northern Pride’s Pride Fringe 2025, Al’s Pals are bringing the laughs with a comedy takeover that’ll have you howling (with laughter, not just at the dogs).
Best of all? It’s all in aid of Second Chance Dog Rescue, so every chuckle helps a pup in need.
What can you expect?
Our Headliner Matt Reed:
Matt Reed is a COMEDY LEGEND! There is not a club in the country Matt has not played; he is a man who has been in every situation that comedy can throw his way. Broken ribs up a mountain. On-stage nudity, crowds of 10 and of 25,000. He’s done it all and he’s done it brilliantly.
