Suspiciously Cheap Comedy

Suspiciously Cheap Comedy is a new material night hosted by multi-award-winning Gein’s Family Giftshop, Goose, and resident MC Kiri Pritchard-McLean. Previous acts include James Acaster, Nish Kumar, Rose Matafeo, Russell Howard, Greg Davies, Sara Pascoe, Tim Key, Lolly Adefope, Joel Dommett, Jamali Maddix, Joe Lycett and more. We think comedians should have great, switched-on audiences to try out new material in front of; we also believe that everyone should be able to afford a great night of comedy. So, we collected an amazing audience of comedy fans and we made our night as cheap as we could: some (we) would say Suspiciously Cheap. And now here we are. We book the best acts in the country, for the best audience in the country, to make the best night in the country. All for a suspiciously cheap price. Line-up to be announced!

Please note that all tickets come with 50p booking fee. Please note that all tickets are for unallocated seating. Please note: selecting the Wheelchair Seat option will also reserve a free seat for an essential companion.

The Comedy Store Players

The Comedy Store Players have been wowing audiences for many years with their improvisational skills, creating unique shows every Sunday in the heart of London’s West End. The concept is simple – the team will ask the audience for suggestions of locations, genres and characters, then improvise hilarious scenes and sketches around those ideas. No two performances are ever the same and the only limit is your imagination!
