He still treads the boards as an actor and was recently in John Godber’s award winning play, Bouncers. Now he is writing his second novel and is a regular compére at the Comedy Store in London.”Mickey Hutton is hilarious, cheeky and irreverent. I love him,”says Judy McGuire of Sunday Magazine.
Marcus Ryan
Perennial globetrotter Marcus Ryan is a gifted storyteller with a natural comic bent and has been featured at so many festivals and clubs it’s hard to know where home is these days. One thing’s for sure, he’s right at home on stage.
A laid back yet engaging stage presence, Marcus charms his audiences with tales from the road and a sharp wit. He has written for radio, television and stage. His comedy stylings have been featured at both the Edinburgh Comedy Festival and Montreal’s Just For Laughs. As an MC he has performed in Australia, USA, Canada, Belgium, Holland, Spain, Guatemala, Ireland and UK.
“Marcus Ryan came with a well-honed act, good, solid, funny stuff delivered with a great deal of personality,” says the Edinburgh Evening News in April of 2009.
“His free-flowing delivery and exceptional take on standard stand-up material is worth catching at any time.”
