Laughter at the Lounge – November

Laughter at the Lounge returns to The Guild Lounge on Friday 6 November, the monthly comedy club that's become a regular fixture of the room's programme. This time around, the bill brings together Gbemi Oladipo, Tom Taylor, and Nina Gilligan.

It's a good night for a few reasons. You've got Gbemi Oladipo, who's built a strong reputation on the circuit; Tom Taylor, a regular on the festival circuit; and Nina Gilligan, who's also well-known for her work beyond stand-up. With three names on the bill, it's a full evening rather than a short set, and because it's a club night, you'll get a proper run of acts back-to-back.

The venue itself is worth a mention if you haven't been. The Guild Lounge is Preston Guild Hall's revitalised entertainment space, with a capacity of 350, and it does more than just comedy. It hosts a wide range of live music, talks, theatre, and family-friendly entertainment, with extra bookings during school half-term weeks and a two-week run of festive family shows in December. Laughter at the Lounge is the room's monthly comedy club, and it's one of the regular ways the space stays busy throughout the year.

Tickets are £14, and the night runs on Friday 6 November at The Guild Lounge, inside Preston Guild Hall on Lancaster Road, PR1 1HT.
