Prepare for proper laughs as Propyard launches Proper Comedy with Dom Joly and Milton Jones

Bristol’s hotspot for all things arts and culture, Propyard, will bring two nights of proper comedy to the St. Philips warehouse on Sunday 1 October and Sunday 5 November 2023. Leading UK comedians, Dom Joly and Milton Jones, will bring their outlandish comedic characters to Bristol, leaving audiences in hysterics.

Kicking off Propyard’s comedy night with a one night only performance on the first Sunday in October from 7pm - 10.30pm, Trigger Happy funny man Dom Joly will return to stage following a hiatus, giving fans a highly-anticipated chance to see him live. Before the pandemic-interrupted tour hits the road again, Dom will make a pit-stop in Bristol to talk about his exploits as a serial globe-trotter and seeker of dangerous travel spots.

From North Korea through to the Congo and Syria to Chernobyl - and armed with a trusty powerpoint - fans can expect Dom’s holiday snaps to inject some serious laughter, with a subtle sense of danger.

The second instalment of Proper Comedy at Propyard will commence on Sunday 5 November with Mock the Week regular and one-liner-legend, Milton Jones. Dressed in his Hawaiian shirt best and rocking a messy hair-do to capture his cartoon-like persona, Milton perfectly encompasses the dryness of British humour. From 7pm until 10:30pm, expect unpredictable monologues that mirror that of a mad scientist on the brink of discovery as well as quick wit and total chaos for a night that will leave audiences in stitches (the good kind, of course).

Jamie Joiner, Director of Propyard, said: “We can’t wait to bring two comedy legends to Propyard for some hilarious and unforgettable evenings. Arts and culture is who we are and being able to programme events that capture the diversity and broad spectrum of the arts is what we love to do. We’re huge comedy fans at Propyard and we'll be in the front row for each of these icons. Well, not the front row… it is stand up after all!”
