Quip Shed Comedy is
ecstatic to be back in Wendover this June for the Big Summer

comedy stars featuring Michael Shafar, Rich Wilson, Headliner TV's
Esther Manito and MC Lyle Barke!

He has amassed 150,000+ followers and 100+ million views online. His debut special A(LIVE) is on Amazon Prime and his most recent special Alright, Next Joke is on YouTube.
“Shafar circumnavigates the line between edgy and offensive with beautiful finesse” ★★★★½ The Age
“He’s a brand of comedian that is getting rarer and rarer to come by these days, and if you’re among those who fear comedy has gotten too politically correct, Shafar will put those fears to rest.” ★★★★ TimeOut
“Shafar has a disarmingly relaxed approach and an intelligent sense of humour with a wildly inventive, darkly comic imagination.” ★★★★★ The Edinburgh Reporter
“Shafar drives across taboos like a combine harvester through comedy corn… His is equal opportunity Sacred Cow slaughter… there is enough here to upset half of Edinburgh and the fresh ideas just keep hitting us.” The Scotsman
