Mike and Mikey Milligan: Lad and Dad
27th August
16:00
Veteran stand-up Mike Milligan joins forces with his rising-star autistic son Mikey Milligan for a full hour of sharp, original comedy in this unique father-and-son Fringe show.
Mike brings over 30 years of top-level circuit experience, with credits including The Comedy Store, The Stand, The Glee Club, international tours, and major support slots. Described by The Sunday Times as a “top northern stand-up”, he delivers polished, razor-sharp observational comedy packed with warmth, wit, and big laughs. Mikey, just 20, is already turning heads on the UK comedy scene, reaching multiple competition finals with a fearless and brilliantly distinctive autistic perspective. His material blends surreal observations, deadpan honesty, and unexpected punchlines that have been winning over audiences across the country. Together, Lad & Dad is more than just a comedy show — it’s a hilarious generational clash between old-school experience and a completely fresh new voice. Smart, heartfelt, chaotic, and very funny, this is stand-up comedy with family chemistry at its centre.
