Winner – Best Themed Comedy Night in the UK outside of London (Chortle, 2023)

WHY THE PEOPLE’S COMEDY?
The People’s Comedy formed in 2018 with the aim of platforming comedians with a message (think counter-culture, alternative, original) and ensuring that they’re paid for their craft.

This night we’ll look to utilise the sunny weather in the People’s Republic of Stokes Croft yard, subject to the sun actually being out. Seats will be placed outside, the bar will be open, a custom stage put up, and the night will commence just under some of the painted words of George Carlin: “Property is theft. Nobody owns anything. When you die it all stays here”.

If the weather is rainy (this will be the 3rd time we attempt!), then we’ll run the night inside the PRSC space like usual.

✔ Raised thousands of pounds for comedians paid in-line with our equal pay structure

This night brings together the fantastic line-up of:
Karl Porter
Amy Mason (BBC New Comedian of the Year shortlist)
Caroline McEvoy (Southport Festival New Comedian of the Year finalist)
Henry Palmer (form breakingly funny – Bristol Punchline)

MC’d by the fantastic Farah Sharp (as heard & seen at BBC Radio 4, The Royal Albert Hall, & Latitude Festival) + more!

Doors & bar open at 7.00pm, show starts promptly at 7.30pm.
