Amanda Hursy on the Partnership

“I’m absolutely buzzing to have LUSH on board. They’re a brand that genuinely cares about people, creativity, and doing things the right way - which is exactly what this comedy night stands for. Doonstairs at Max’s champions legends of the local comedy scene and invites the big names in to create a top quality night of comedy as well as a dedicated introducing spot for emerging talent. I am proud to be inclusive and provide a safe space for all performers and remove barriers of entry keeping the night affordable to most at a tenner. As an independent comedian having the backing of a major brand to support is,well, LUSH.
