Touring stand-up show from the comedy club The Comedy Store, part of 'The Best In Stand Up', recommended for ages 16 and over.
The Comedy Store is back at Derby Theatre on Sunday 10 October, part of their The Best In Stand Up tour. If you're not familiar with the name, it's the one that's practically a shorthand for the scene itself. They've been running for nearly 40 years, and they describe themselves as the greatest and most influential comedy club on the planet — a premier breeding ground for new talent. It's the room where names like Eddie Izzard, John Bishop, Jimmy Carr, Rhod Gilbert and Sarah Millican first cut their teeth, so the brand carries a fair bit of weight.
This particular night sits within The Best In Stand Up, which they bill as a showcase of the brightest comedy names from around the globe. The Comedy Store is a touring club, so they're bringing that same format to the Main House at Derby Theatre. It's recommended for ages 16 and over.
If you can't make this one, they're not just here for a single visit. The club is touring the city throughout the year, with dates on 28 February, 18 April and 12 December 2027, so you've got a few chances to catch them if October doesn't work.
