Friday 27th and Saturday 28th May, 9p.m.  -  Merlin International Theatre - Bar   This weekend is the final showdown for this talented bunch of comedy entertainers and it promises to be the best yet.  If you have not experienced this International stand-up comedy show thus far – you must do so now before it is too late.  Bursting onto the Merlin stage in December – this bunch of mirth makers have gone from strength to strength.    Hungary’s own funnyman, MIKLOS “Mickie” GALLA, returns with his side-splitting round of comedy songs, obsession with open windows, clinical fear of dogs and a new hair doo! [wolf whistles]  Back too is the indomitable ALAN “Wilko” WILKINSON with a brand new Krazy Kwizz section and tales of inheriting all his Nana’s worldly goods: a hair net and a tin of beans.  Hmmm.  The sinister Swede, MADELEINE “Maddie” DAMASTI returns with some brand new material on her noisy neighbours and some strange Swedish habits.  The lineup also includes a couple of special guests: Ex porn-star KOLE “Licks” KERR shares his secrets of the seedy underworld and James Dean’s illegitimate grandson, Oil baron ALEC “J.R.” DEAN from Texas (where else) may or may not invite you to the Oil Barron’s Ball.  Whooopeeee!    As ever your stunning and hilarious host for the evening, KEARA “Paddy” MURPHY cracks the emcee whip: “She’s Eddie Izzard with less make-up and more Glasgow” “A night of Stand-up that was actually pretty damn funny”  Eric Damato, Budapest Times and tips@pestiside.hu  DO NOT MISS IT YOU FOOLS!!!
