The Comedy Gala in aid of Smile for Life

Students of Newcastle College are hosting their first ever Comedy Gala in an event which promises to give you an alternative and thoroughly enjoyable Friday night out.

The event is in aid of a local children’s charity Smile for Life and will feature some up and coming comedians from right here in the North East. New to the scene but full of talent, these comedians will bring fun and laughter to raise money for a fantastic cause.

On the night, multiple acts will take to the stage with their original stand-up comedy routines in SPACE Bar, Newcastle College. There will also be a raffle with the chance to win some top prizes such as a night’s stay in a hotel, spa days and massages, meals at local restaurants, a mystery hamper and lots more.

All profits from the night will go to the charity Smile for Life who work to enrich and enhance the lives of children across the North East who are disadvantaged and disabled. “We think the work that they do is extremely valuable and are delighted to be able to do what we can to help” says Project Manager, Pete Laws. “So far they have helped over 1000 children from the region and we want to raise as much money as possible so they can help even more children and we think The Comedy Gala is the perfect way to do just that”.

THE COMEDY GALA is being held at SPACE Bar which is on Newcastle College’s main campus and is being organised by NECG Events which is a newly formed company by Event Management students of the college.

Doors Open at 6.15pm on Friday 28th of March with a show start time of 7.00pm sharp. Tickets are £5 (£3.50 for students/ concessions) and you can buy them online by visiting www.comedygala.eventbrite.com or in person by heading to the Box Office at Newcastle College (located in the Performance Academy).
