- Visitor Information
- Events
An exciting line-up of top comics take to the stage for Beating Bowel Cancer's annual Christmas Comedy Night at the Comedy Store. Headlining is Mock the Week regular Gina Yashere, the Bethnal Green stand-up of Nigerian descent that The Scotsman calls "a British rival for Whoopi Goldberg". Support comes from - hurrah! - bumbling posh gagsmith Will Smith, well-known for his stiff upper lip and encyclopaedic knowledge of Bergerac. MC for the night is big-haired Sheffield joker Tom Wrigglesworth - "the body of Peter Crouch and the face of Postman Pat" - while Matthew Osborn and Miles Jupp also perform. This annual event at the famous West End comedy club is always a sell out so buy tickets early to avoid disappointment. Beating Bowel Cancer is a leading UK charity for bowel cancer patients, working to raise awareness of symptoms, promote early diagnosis and encourage open access to treatment choice for those affected by bowel cancer.About Comedy Store
The Comedy Store is the spiritual home of stand-up in the UK. Despite being the best large comedy venue in the country, the Store still succeeds in creating an intimacy between comic and audience. Best of all, its central London location gives it a wonderfully mixed crowd. More about Comedy Store
