Live Comedy at The Mesmerist

Join us at The Mesmerist in our Birdcage room for a night of Live Comedy! Buy Tickets Here Eleanor Tiernan A master of the uniquely oblique worldview, Eleanor Tiernan delivers deceptively sharp, acerbic wit with a trademark deadpan charm. She avoids cheap gimmicks or topical trash-talk, relying instead on astute, whimsical observations grounded in honest, highly original storytelling. Eleanor has been featured on Comedy Central’s The Alternative Comedy Experience , BBC Radio 4's The News Quiz , and BBC NI's The Blame Game , and she is a highly sought-after tour support act for the likes of Stewart Lee and Jason Manford. James Ellis James Ellis is a rising star on the UK circuit known for his sharp joke writing and highly relatable storytelling. A regional winner of the prestigious BBC New Comedy Award, his comedy zeroes in on the everyday frustrations and mundane struggles of modern life with brilliant punchlines and impeccable timing. In addition to being a fixture at top independent comedy clubs across the country, he is a regular opening act for Angela Barnes on her national tours. Tom Toal Tom Toal is a warm, engaging, and naturally hilarious storyteller whose charm wins over any audience instantly. Mixing immense vulnerability with an optimistic outlook, his comedy explores everything from the absurdities of daily life to heartfelt personal anecdotes.

Manic Mugday; Brighton's No.1 Comedy Show (on a Monday!)

Monday is the new Friday. Manic Mugday is at The Walrus now, and things are getting bonkers. A motley bunch of comedians. One Mug. Pure chaos.The fate of our comedians rests entirely on: Your ability to make noise. A rubbish decibel meter we bought off Temu. Questionable permission from Al Murray to use his cardboard Cutout. It’s Brighton’s #1 Monday night cult phenomenon. It’s non-profit, high-stakes, and £4 cheaper than a Guinness. A mush of pro-acts, amateurs, and absolute carnage.
