Horatio Gould: Work in Progress at Creatures Comedy Festival
Catch Horatio Gould's latest material at Creatures Comedy Club during the city's celebrated Creatures Comedy Festival on Wednesday 29 July. This is your chance to see a talented comedian working through fresh ideas in an intimate setting – exactly what a "work in progress" show promises. With tickets just £10-£12, it's a brilliant night out that won't break the bank, perfect for comedy fans wanting to discover new voices in Manchester's vibrant stand-up scene.
Creatures Comedy Club sits right in the heart of Manchester's Northern Quarter, a neighbourhood buzzing with independent bars, vintage shops and creative energy. The venue itself has become a proper hub for comedy lovers, hosting everything from established acts to up-and-coming performers testing new material. The intimate space creates that special atmosphere where you feel close to the action – it's the kind of gig where you'll notice every laugh and reaction.
The show kicks off at 20:45, so arrive early to grab a drink from the bar and soak up the Northern Quarter vibe beforehand. The 16+ age restriction makes it accessible for younger comedy fans, though expect adult humour typical of stand-up shows. Parking nearby is straightforward, and the area's packed with food spots if you fancy grabbing something before the comedy starts.
