Stand-up night with Dan Nightingale running a new set and working the room, followed by guest sets from Eshaan Akbar and Callum Oakley.
Dan Nightingale brings his Late Show to Problematic Pub Comedy Club on Saturday 28 November, with the night split into two distinct halves. Nightingale, who hosts the Have A Word podcast, takes the first half for himself: he'll be working the room and running through his new set, so it's as much about the crowd as it is about the material. The second half hands over to two polished sets from his guests, Eshaan Akbar and Callum Oakley.
Akbar is a London stand-up, actor and podcaster who played Principal Lakhani in the Netflix hit Sex Education and has appeared on Live At The Apollo, QI, Mock The Week and Celebrity Mastermind. Oakley comes from Liverpool and started on the comedy scene at 14, reaching the live semi-finals of Britain's Got Talent at 16. He's supported Paul Smith, Adam Rowe, Pat Monohan and Brennan Reece, and won Liverpool Comedian Of The Year in 2017. Between them, they bring two different styles to the second half of the night.
Nightingale's own comedy draws on his early days working behind the bar in a local comedy club, and the Late Show format pairs him with some of his funniest mates. The split structure means you get two different kinds of night in one: the first half is Nightingale working the room and testing out new material, and the second is a pair of tighter, more established sets from the guests. It's a late one, so it's worth keeping the timing in mind.
