» Comedy highlight: Laughing Horse Comedy
There’s a new weekend comedy night in town – well, it’s been around for a couple of months but it’s good and settled now. Laughing Horse Comedy has been running comedy nights around London and the South East, as well as a free Fringe at the cultural massive that is the Edinburgh Festival and shows at the Brighton Festival, for some time now. It also runs its respected new act stand-up competition each year, some of the heats of which you may have caught last month at this very venue (previous years’ winners include circuit favourites Russell Kane and Carl Donnelly). So when Laughing Horse announced it was starting a weekly weekend comedy night in Brighton we knew that the Brighton comedy scene had made the London lot sit up and take notice.
Back to the night though, and Laughing Horse keep setting up some of the best emerging line-ups around for us, from both the Brighton and London pool of comics. Tonight’s line-up is hosted by the delightful and gutsy Sajeela Kershi (right), safe hands as ever for a comedy night. Joining her as the line-up, delivering a mixture of comedic stylings, are Steve N Allen, Bobby Carroll, Stephanie Lang, Martin Hill and zany Canadian comic Wes Zaharuk. With the bar open until 2am and the evening’s events taking place in the beautiful setting of The Quadrant’s upstairs room, you can happily settle in for a fun Saturday night. Get there early to baggsy yourself a prime position.
Laughing Horse Comedy, The Quadrant, Brighton, Saturday 13 February, 8pm, £6/5.
