FOUR comedians will play on a Northwich stage when a popular comedy night returns to town.

Haha at the Harlequin takes place at the Harlequin Theatre, in Queen Street, on Saturday, September 26.

Opening the show is Paul Ricketts, described as sometimes silly, serious or surreal, sometimes autobiographical, political or near the knuckle but always funny.

He will be followed by Tom Little, 2015 Leicester Mercury comedian of the year and BBC Radio new comedian of the year 2014 finalist.

Headlining is Dave Johns, a regular headlining act playing all the major comedy clubs in the UK and comedy festivals world wide.

He has worked on stage in the Middle East, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Johannesburg, Sydney, New York, Amsterdam and the Arctic and is a regular guest on comedy panel shows 'Never Mind The Buzzcocks' and '8 Out Of Ten Cats'.
