PARK LAUGHS INCLUDES EDINBURGH FRINGE PREVIEWS, SUNDAY MIXED BILL SHOWS, AND CHILDREN’S SHOWS

Park Theatre is delighted to announce a new series of stand up and comedy shows in both Park200 and the intimate Park90 space. The season includes acclaimed shows, works-in-progress with Park Laughs Previews, mixed bills in Park Laughs Sundays, and two children’s shows. Known for theatre new writing and revivals, this will be the first time Park Theatre has presented a dedicated programme of comedy. The season includes Sara Barron, Rob Auton, Iain Stirling, Nic Sampson, Glenn Moore, Bella Hudd, Ria Lina, Anuvab Pal, Thanyia Moore, Robin Ince and more.

The season kicks off with Julia Masli: Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha (11 & 12 January), named by the Guardian as the best comedy show of 2023 and nominated for Best Comedy Show at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards.

Next up is Comedy Club 4 Kids (20 January). Since 2005, the Comedy Club 4 Kids has been getting the best stand-ups, sketch acts and cabaret stars from the international circuit to do their thing for an audience of children (aged 6+) and their families… but without the rude bits!

Later in the year, children are invited to join the Blue Badge Bunch (9 March) the most engaging, inclusive game show that’s taking the nation by storm. Dubbed the ‘disability Taskmaster’, hosted by disabled comedian Benny Shakes, the show has toured the UK twice and received critical acclaim for its impact on disabled representation.

Over four weekends, Park Theatre will host Park Laughs Sundays (28 January, 18 February, 21 April, 26 May), a mixed bill of five to six comedians, familiar faces of stage and screen. The line-ups include Glenn Wool, Arthur Smith, Finlay Christie, Ria Lina, Angelos Epithemiou, Seann Walsh, Robin Ince and Thanyia Moore.

In Park Laughs Previews (15 – 17 February), Avalon in association with Park Theatre will present three double bills of comedians testing out their new Edinburgh Fringe shows. The mini-series includes Sara Barron and Rob Auton, Iain Stirling and Nic Sampson, and Glenn Moore and Bella Hull.

Finally Jacob Hawley: SPACE (9 June) is the new stand up show from the award-winning (and Arsenal-supporting) comedian. Politics for idiots, feminism for lads, love stories for louts and self-care for those who don’t care.
