Tuesday 17th May at The Wheatsheaf
Tomorrow night we’re back at The Wheatsheaf in Dallington Village for another free entry, pay what you want comedy night. We’ve got 6 acts and our MC Ben Aveling.
These nights consist of acts trying out new material or new acts perfecting their set to perform at bigger clubs up and down the country. It’s essentially a workshop, and the only way to know if you’ve written something funny is to say it in front of a crowd full of strangers right? And let’s be honest, Northampton has been the testing ground for things like Chip & Pin, delivery robots, so why not comedy…
These nights are a lot of fun, it’s relaxed, in an intimate space. Talk to someone who has been watching stand up for a long time, they’ll likely have a story about how they saw one of the big TV acts in a small pub years ago before they made it big.
We don’t charge an entry fee for these nights, we don’t make any money on these nights. We put our time and effort in to support the acts, local venues and to give people something else to do on a Tuesday evening. We do a bucket split at the end and all the money taken after the shows is split between the comics to contribute towards their travel costs.
If you fancy it, we’ll be kicking off at 8pm tomorrow night. Or it’s the 3rd Tuesday of the month at The Wheatsheaf in Dallington Village. They do some great food as well, so why not pop down a bit earlier and check it out.
