See Allen and Ruffell at Glee Club

Nottingham Glee Club is the place to be on November 17 for a visit by two rising comedians - Tom Allen and Suzi Ruffell.

Both fresh the Edinburgh Festival as well as supporting their comedy peers and idols, Tom Allen (Sarah Millican) and Suzi Ruffell (Josh Widdicombe, Alan Carr and Kevin Bridges) have taken their hotly anticipated shows on the road.

The sharply dressed, well-spoken, disparagingly camp son of working class Bromley, Tom Allen explains why he’s occasionally disgusted with modern life yet delighted with its eccentricities.

As seen on 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, The John Bishop Christmas Show & The Comedy Store Presents, Tom recently wowed the O2 Arena crowd on Channel 4’s Comedy Gala and was a guest on Great British Bake Off’s Extra Slice with Jo Brand.
