Comedy Festival at the Citz 2011

With 10 different acts from the Magners Glasgow International Comedy Festival at the Citizens Theatre this year, there is most definitely a show to suit all tastes and ages. There are a few big names you'll know very well, but a few others you might not - but who'd be well worth taking a risk on.

The easiest way to suss out their style, is to watch a clip; so I've gathered some together in one easy blog post, to save you the trouble.

Warning: These are adult shows and do contain swearing!

We'll see you soon for plenty of giggles and most likely a few big belly laughs!
