Comedy

Sold Out.

The best lecture you ever had, but all splintered and haphazard, like the popular children’s magazine of knowledge, Look and Learn. Like a Show and Tell, with less dinosaurs and more words. And some of those Words will be songs. A whole curriculum of wit and accidental profundity.

Don't miss out on one of the hottest nights in the comedy calendar.

Line-up:
MC DAN ATKINSON
MARLON DAVIS
SARA PASCOE
ABANDOMAN
ANGELOS EPITHEMIOU
"GARY HUTTON"
ARDAL O'HANLON

Time Out Live presents another extraordinary night of award-winning comedy and variety featuring Live At The Apollo star Shappi Khorsandi, burger van owner and Shooting Stars regular Angelos Epithemiou, a rare performance by comedy legend Kevin Eldon, The Thick Of It's Miles Jupp, if.comedy Award-winner Tom Basden, Mock The Week's Holly Walsh, Hackney Empire Award-winners Abandoman, all hosted by the one and only Jarred Christmas. Comedy line-ups don't get much better than this.

If.Comedy Best Newcomer nominee Zoe Lyons brings her all new show to The Bloomsbury Theatre for one night only.

In 2008 Zoe was awarded the inaugural DAVE award for Best Joke at the Fringe for a gag that Germaine Greer described as 'astonishingly vicious'. Zoe is, of course, grateful for the compliment and has since appeared on Mock The Week (BBC2), Four Stands Up (Radio 4), Clive Anderson's Chatroom (BBC2) and PMQ with Andy Parsons (Radio Five Live).

Lucy Porter's latest solo show is a witty romp through the history of gold. In these times of recession, gold is prized more highly than ever, as other forms of currency grow worthless. What's so special about gold, and why is it that human beings have long been obsessed with the yellow, shiny stuff? The show will feature live alchemy, a tribute to Mr T. and a very valuable, big gold thing with security guards and everything!

It's been a great 18 months for Micky - he appeared in BBC 1's Michael McIntyre's Road Show, his Radio 4 series What Chance Change? was a hit with listeners and critics alike and he is one of a handful of comics to perform their own Comedy Central special. So now it's time for Micky to hit the road performing the best of his last two Edinburgh shows. It’s not just time to go out, it’s time to go Out Out
