The Next Big Thing for Just a Fiver?  Welcome to the Shoebox Comedy Club New jokes. Fresh faces. Real laughs.

December 17, 2025

Before the arena tours and TV specials, comedy legends like John Bishop stood on our stage with nothing but a mic and a handful of new ideas. We’ve spent 25 years watching stars being born, and now, we’re inviting you into the delivery room. The Shoebox Comedy Club is our brand-new initiative dedicated to the raw, unpolished magic of comedy in the making. For just £5, you can join Wafa Daldoul and friends in our Studio Theatre as they road-test brand-new material. It’s an intimate, high-stakes setting where the jokes are fresh and the audience is part of the punchline’s history. Come discover the next big thing before the rest of the world catches on.
