Stand Up
For The Weekend with MATT GREEN

plus HAYLEY ELLIS and compere TOM TOAL

"Intelligent comedy from the highly amusing and baby-faced Green" – The List

Actor, writer and comedian Matt Green has been performing stand up comedy since 2003. His act is a mixture of high energy observational and topical jokes combined with more personal stories and anecdotes. He is a talented yarn-spinner, setting scenes evocatively, and patiently teases out the laughs.

Matt has produced four solo shows at the Edinbugh Fringe since 2008, and returns to headline The Comedy Box with his distinctive nerdy, brainy comedy.

"Green is a stand-up audience's dream; his off-the-cuff jokes are so good they could have been scripted, and his clever prepared material is delivered so nonchalantly it could have been improvised...an explosion of comedy that left everyone in stitches" Three Weeks (Edinburgh Fringe 2009)

"Comic gold...he delivers his observations superbly well, and does not dip in quality at any point. With a great deal of improvisatory talent to fall back on, Green cannot fail to impress anyone who appreciates a good stand-up routine." Three Weeks (Edinburgh Fringe)

"Green is in his element when discussing the crazy goings-on of everyday life...he tells these anecdotes with noticeable zeal – enthusiasm which rubs off on his audience.” Fest (Edinburgh Fringe)

"It’s hard to imagine anyone would leave this show disappointed. It is as solidly satisfying as a carb-laden Fringe dinner...and Green proves himself an adept comic" Chortle.co.uk

“Effervescent prepubescent charm. Green’s deftly scripted observational material has a brilliantly earnest quality" The Skinny (Edinburgh Fringe)

also featuring HAYLEY ELLIS

"Outstanding. Her quick wit, ability to ad-lib and audience involvement provided the right tone and mood from the outset. Greatly entertained the crowd." Rock Radio

Manchester comedian and writer Hayley Ellis has gone from strength to strength since contributing to Xfm and Russell Howard's Good News. Possessing a natural warmth and charm, she is much in demand from comedy venues throughout the UK. Tonight Hayley makes her debut at The Comedy Box.
