About this Event
If you want a great night out seeing the best alternative comedy in an intimate venue then Big Comedy Hammersmith at The Distillers is the place for you!
A new and exciting monthly night of stand-up brought to you by lovers of great comedy and featuring some of the funniest comedians around. Hosted by the fantastic MC Jacob Hatton: blending clever wordplay with observational insights, he’s a standout performer in the industry.
SPECIAL COMEDY DISCOUNT 10% OFF DRINKS!
Doors open at 6.55 and the show starts at 7.30.
Before the show starts have a drink and listen to the fantastic band Rubik and the Cuboids. If Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet and Frankie Goes to Hollywood had a lovechild, it might sound a bit like Rubik and the Cuboids. 1980s pop played on delightfully groggy guitars, smouldering bass, thick, heavy drums and vocals like molten lava.
Comedy is at 7.30 and this month we have a stellar lineup of comics including our headliner the brilliant DAN ANTOPOLSKI
Dave Funniest Joke of the Edinburgh Fringe & BBC New Comedy Award Winner – Dan Antopolski, is a British comic, actor and writer. He has been nominated for three Perrier Awards both as a solo artist and alongside co-stars Lee Mack and Catherine Tate. He has appeared in various television programs and radio shows, and is best known to younger audiences for hosting the UK game show The Dare Devil. He has appeared at international comedy festivals in Montreal, Melbourne and New York.
"Spectacular displays of verbal pyrotechnics ... A confident, splendidly silly and sometimes dazzling show." - Stephanie Merritt, THE OBSERVER
"He's plummy but crass, cerebral but goofy and the sparks of genius fly off him like a Catherine wheel." - Nadine McBay, METRO
