Read full details
Phil Ellis brings his stand-up show *Bath Mat* to Manchester for a night of absurdist comedy. Known for his chaotic, high-energy style, Ellis has been a fixture at the Edinburgh Fringe since 2013, winning the Malcolm Hardee Award for Comic Originality in 2023 and earning an Edinburgh Comedy Award nomination that same year. His TV credits include *Taskmaster* (series 20), *Drunk History*, and *Roast Battle*.
Attendees can expect the unpredictable, boundary-pushing humour that has made Ellis a cult favourite — a blend of silly, funny, and absurd thoughts delivered with relentless energy. The show promises the kind of helter-skelter fun that has drawn comparisons to a "conductor of chaos" from critics.
