Sony Award winning presenter and comedian kicks off a New Year of laughter

Sony Award winning presenter and comedian kicks off a New Year of laughter.

Des McLean, the award-winning presenter, actor and stand-up legend from Glasgow will headline our first comedy night of 2014.

A Buddy Good Laugh, Renfrewshire Arts & Museums’ newest comedy strand, is where laughter fans should flock to catch the hysterical Des on stage on Thursday 30 January at Paisley Arts Centre.

By far the runaway success of Renfrewshire Arts & Museums’ autumn 2013 programme, A Buddy Good Laugh has been created in partnership with local promoters Dead Sheep Comedy with one goal in mind: to bring top-notch comedy to Renfrewshire.

With each night MC’d by Dead Sheep Comedy creator and local comic Scott Gibson, A Buddy Good Laugh enjoyed a hugely successful debut last year and everyone involved is looking forward to another five gigs between January and June in 2014.

Joining Des McLean on January 30 will be ex Scottish Comedian of the Year Scott Agnew as well as Only An Excuse creator Phil Differ.

A Buddy Good Laugh will be back for 2014 on Thursday 30 January. Doors open at 8.15pm and the show will start at 8.30pm. Tickets cost £10 (£8 conc) and can be purchased by calling the Box Office on 0300 300 1210 or going online to www.renfrewshire.gov.uk/onlinebooking.

Line-ups for A Buddy Good Laugh gigs Feb – June are available online now, visit www.renfrewshire.gov.uk/events for more details.
