Catch comedian Matt Forde bringing his new show "Project Holy Moly (WIP)" to the Creatures Comedy Festival this August. This is your chance to see his work-in-progress material in an intimate setting where the energy between performer and audience really counts – perfect for comedy fans who appreciate raw, developing routines from one of the UK's sharpest observational comedians.
Creatures Comedy Club sits right in the heart of Manchester's Northern Quarter, surrounded by independent bars, vintage shops, and the creative buzz that makes this neighbourhood special. The venue itself has earned serious credibility on the UK comedy circuit, hosting quality acts and maintaining that sweet spot between professional production and proper grassroots comedy vibes that locals love.
The show kicks off at 3:30pm on Saturday 1st August, giving you an afternoon comedy session that leaves your evening free – handy if you fancy hitting one of the nearby Northern Quarter bars afterwards. At just £12, it's decent value for a developing show from an established comic. Note that it's 16+ only, and arriving a few minutes early means you'll bag a decent spot and soak in the pre-show atmosphere that makes these sessions memorable.
