Stand-up night from The Comedy Store, the world's most influential comedy club, showcasing stand-up talent from around the globe.
The Comedy Store comes to Derby Theatre on Sunday 18 April 2027, as part of 'The Best In Stand Up', a night that brings together stand-up from around the globe. If you've never heard of them, the name carries a fair bit of weight: they bill themselves as the world's greatest and most influential comedy club, and they've been at it for nearly 40 years.
That long run has made them a bit of a breeding ground for new talent. The room is where stand-up stars like Eddie Izzard, John Bishop, Jimmy Carr, Rhod Gilbert and Sarah Millican first cut their teeth, so the night is built around that same tradition of giving comedians a stage to work their material in front of a live crowd. The show is recommended for ages 16 and over.

It's hosted at Derby Theatre in St Peter's Quarter, which is described as the city's premier destination for world-class theatre and a lively hub for the arts. Beyond the main stage, they run workshops, classes and events alongside their productions, so it's a proper working theatre rather than just a venue for hire. Tickets are £21, with Friends members getting £2 off.
