BURY comedian Phil Buckley will be hoping to raise a pile of money as well as a few laughs at his annual Comedy4Christies event at the Lowry in June.

Last year the show raised nearly £5,000 for the charity, and Phil is hoping that this year they will manage to surpass that impressive amount.

The line-up includes If.Comedy award winner Sarah Millican who has appeared on a number of popular television shows including Live At The Apollo, Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow and Have I Got News For You.

Also appearing will be Jonathan Mayor, comedy sketch team Slaughter house live and of course City Life finalist Phil Buckley himself.

Comedian and Key 103 DJ Justin Moorhouse will be hosting the evening.

The event will take place on Sunday, June 27. Tickets cost £15. To book, visit thelowry.com or ring 0843 208 6010.
