Phil Ellis brings his stand-up show *Bath Mat* to York for a night of absurdist comedy. Known for his chaotic, high-energy style, Ellis has been a regular at the Edinburgh Fringe since 2013, winning the Malcolm Hardee Award for Comic Originality in 2023 and the Edinburgh Comedy Award Panel Prize in 2014 for *Funz and Gamez*. His TV credits include *Taskmaster* (series 20), *Drunk History*, and *Roast Battle*.
Attendees can expect a fast-paced, unpredictable set filled with the silly, funny, and absurd thoughts that have made Ellis a cult favorite.
