Crofters Comedy
Return, for a third season, of this popular open-slot night at the Crofters Rights on Stokes Croft, hosted by comic and compere Sarah Slater (pictured) on the last Sunday of the month.
Sarah explains: “Crofters Comedy has been running for two years as a comedy open mic-night, held in the back room of the Crofters Rights on the last Sunday of each month, with comics of most shapes and styles all doing short five- or ten-minute spots. These are budding comedians who need to earn their stripes in front of a live and friendly audience.”
The Crofters Rights’ back room offers a large stage, professional sounds and lighting (spotlight coming soon): the venue’s much-loved Ray’s Pizzas will also be on half-price with your entry ticket on the night.
Sarah has seen Bristol’s open-mic scene grow in the two years she’s been running Crofters Comedy – and, as such, she’s upping her game for this third season and booking a selection of professional acts from across the country, while still offering seven to eight spots for pre-booked and walk-up comics on the night.

Jan 28 features sets from Josh Elton, Louise Leigh, Sal Drummond, Jo Franks, Sally-Anne Hayward, Henry Palmer and Jon Matthews. Walk-up spots available on the night. Sarah is once again your excellent compere.
8pm/doors 7.30pm, £5 on the door (includes half-price pizza). For more info, visit www.facebook.com/CroftersComedy
