The Selfdrive Laughter Factory presents ’The Good, the Bad and the Filthy’ tour

Experience brutally honest comedy, Irish charm, and a rising star's humor
Award winning Canadian comedian, Kate Barron is the brutally honest, unfiltered voice in your head. After a lifetime of being told she is too big, too loud and too vulgar, by everyone from strangers to teachers, she decided to step on stage and start wearing those labels as badges of honour. Kate doesn’t do self-deprecating. She’s that confident friend you wish you had on speed dial when you need to be pumped up. Described as “simply a scream.” by The Telegraph, Paddy Lennox has a warm Irish charm and a twinkle in his eye that can make the twists and turns in his jokes come as a laugh-out shock. A regular at all the big comedy clubs, Lennox has a couple of Edinburgh Festival shows under his belt and a great future ahead of him.  Finally, Liz Bains reached the semi-finals in the 2023 UK Funny Women Awards and was labelled ‘one to watch’. So, catch the next arena acts up close and personal, while you can.

Meet the comics

Kate Barron

A hilarious and unfiltered take on sex, dating and relationships.

Canadian comedian, Kate Barron is the brutally honest, unfiltered voice in your head. Her hilarious stories on dating, sex, and being happily childless are not for the faint of heart.

Award winning Canadian comedian, Kate Barron is the brutally honest, unfiltered voice in your head. Kate fought (and partied) through her naive 20-something phase of trying to find herself, and came out the other side. Now in her 30s, she & #39;s a fiercely loyal woman with a strong bull s#!t detector and the experience to back it up. After a lifetime of being told she is too big, too loud and too vulgar, by everyone from strangers to teachers, she decided to step on stage and start wearing those labels as badges of honour. Kate doesn’t do self- deprecating. She’s that confident friend you wish you had on speed dial when you need to be pumped up.
