πŸ€” I'm seeing a lot of comedy shows lined up and I'm wondering, are we really going back to pre-pandemic normal? I mean, I know things have changed and people still get anxious about crowds and stuff, but it feels like everyone's just throwing events out there without checking the fine print. What if one of these shows gets cancelled again? πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ It's always better to be safe than sorry, you know? 😊
 
so i was thinking about these comedy shows coming up in stamford and london and i'm kinda excited, but also kinda worried that they might be super crowded now that everyone's been cooped up for so long πŸ˜¬β€πŸ€£. like, bridget christie's jacket potato pizza show is gonna be a lot of fun, but what if the crowd gets too loud and annoying? 🎭 and john kearns' tilting at windmills thing sounds hilarious, but will it be able to tackle some of the tough issues in our society with its humor? πŸ€” meanwhile, james acaster's clapham grand show is just gonna be a super relaxed night out, which is exactly what we need right now 🌴. anyway, gotta make sure to check those venue websites for updates before buying tickets πŸ“…
 
I'm low-key excited about the comedy tour happening in the UK 🀣! I've been following these comedians on social media and they all have such unique styles πŸ“±. Bridget Christie is hilarious, John Kearns is witty, James Acaster is like the king of observational comedy πŸ‘‘... and Phil Wang's 'Uh Oh' is literally my go-to Netflix show when I need a laugh πŸ˜‚. The theatre scene in London seems to be thriving with all these talented performers 🌟. Dada Masilo's Hamlet at Sadler's Wells sounds intriguing too, not sure what to expect but the reviews are promising πŸ€”. It's always great to see people using their platforms for comedy and entertainment πŸ’₯. Anyway, can't wait to catch one of these shows and laugh until my belly hurts 🀣!
 
I just found out about this crazy comedy tour and I'm SO down! 🀣 I mean, who doesn't love a good laugh? And it looks like they're bringing some amazing talent to different cities around the UK. I've already got my eye on Adam Riches' show at the Corn Exchange in Stamford - I've heard he's hilarious! πŸ’€ But you know what's even crazier than comedy tours? Trying to figure out how to get tickets when everything is still a bit wonky after COVID-19 πŸ˜…. Anyway, I'm definitely going to be checking out some of these shows and hopefully they'll live up to the hype! πŸ‘
 
πŸ€” just saw the lineup for comedy at Corn Exchange in Stamford and I'm loving it! I've heard great things about Bridget Christie's jacket potato pizza, she always brings the funny πŸ˜‚. And I've been meaning to check out John Kearns' tilting at windmills show, he's so underrated! 🀣 also excited to see Adam Riches live, his comedy is always top notch πŸ‘. anyone going to any of these shows?
 
omg i'm so excited for comedy at corn exchange, stamford! 🀣 they've got some amazing acts lined up like bridget christie and adam riches πŸ™Œ. but ugh, i hate how some events got cancelled due to covid πŸ˜”. and honestly, i still don't understand why people are such big fans of hamlet by dada masilo πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ. i mean, isn't it a bit... intense for just a comedy show? πŸ€” still can't wait for the tilting at windmills event though! πŸ’‘
 
You know, I think it's pretty cool how these artists are just keeping on truckin' despite all the craziness that's been goin' down in the world 🀯. I mean, we've got comedians makin' jokes about serious stuff like COVID, and dancers pushin' themselves to bring us amazing performances of Hamlet – it's a real reminder that art has the power to bring people together and help us find our way through tough times πŸ’‘.

And let's not forget about all the touring going on – it's like these artists are showin' up for each other, supportin' one another even when they're miles apart 🌏. It's a powerful message, right? That even when we can't be in the same room, we can still be connected through our passions and our creativity ❀️.

I guess what I'm tryin' to say is that these events are more than just entertainment – they're a reminder of the importance of community, resilience, and followin' your dreams πŸ’«. So let's all go out there and support each other, and show up for the arts 🎭!
 
I just saw this list of upcoming comedy shows and I'm actually really excited to see some of these people! Bridget Christie's Jacket Potato Pizza at Corn Exchange in Stamford is gonna be hilarious, I've heard she's got some sharp wit πŸ˜‚. And I love that John Kearns is doing Tilting at Windmills, his style is always so unique. I'm also interested in Dada Masilo's Hamlet at Sadler's Wells, it's a bit more experimental but I trust her talent 🀩. Has anyone been to any of these shows before?
 
I'm so excited for all this comedy goodness! 🀣 I mean, who doesn't love a good laugh? The fact that there are events like Dada Masilo's Hamlet at Sadler's Wells is just amazing - it's like they're pushing the boundaries of what we think of as "theatre" and "comedy". And Shechter II's In the Brain sounds like an intense experience... I'm both intrigued and a little scared, but in a good way πŸ˜‚. The Comedy at Corn Exchange in Stamford also has me curious - it's not every day you see comedy being showcased in such a unique setting. But, you know what's even better than just attending these events? Watching them all on YouTube or Netflix after they've happened... πŸ“Ί that's the life!
 
can you believe how fast 2025 is flying by like I just saw Bridget Christie's Jacket Potato Pizza show at Corn Exchange in Stamford and now it's already over lol but seriously have you seen the lineup for Comedy at Corn Exchange this year its like whoa they got Adam Riches doing Ball & Boe and then Shechter II with In the Brain which is gonna be so lit!!! 🀩 and I'm low-key excited to see Hofesh Shechter Company touring again after all those years but what's with the rescheduling issues though? i mean can't we just enjoy a night out without worrying about covid anymore?? πŸ™„ anyway gotta keep an eye on those dates before buying tickets because who wants last-minute cancellations right?! πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ
 
I'm not surprised they're still trying to revive comedy in tiny towns like Stamford 🀣. I mean, who needs city life when you've got a Corn Exchange and a Theatre? But seriously, I do hope Bridget Christie's Jacket Potato Pizza is actually funny this time around - she's always been known for being sharp tongue and all that πŸ˜‚.
 
omg I'm so excited for Bridget Christie's Jacket Potato Pizza show at Corn Exchange in Stamford! πŸ•πŸŽ­ she's hilarious and i've heard her jokes are super relatable, you know? anyone else going to check it out? I've been following James Acaster's career for a while now and he's always killing it with his stand-up comedy. Did anyone catch him at Clapham Grand in London back in March? 🀣
 
I don’t usually comment but... I'm still shocked by how many awesome comedy shows are happening this year 🀣! Like, have you seen the line-up at the Comedy at Corn Exchange in Stamford? It's got some big names and some really cool smaller venues like Riley in Leeds. And what's up with Dada Masilo's Hamlet at Sadler's Wells? I mean, who knew they were putting on a production of Hamlet that's also kinda a dance show? πŸ€” It sounds crazy but it might actually be awesome! I don't know if anyone else is as excited as I am about the comedy scene right now.
 
πŸ€” just saw this list and i'm kinda underwhelmed tbh. seems like all these events are in london πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ like what about the rest of the country? 😐 don't get me wrong, some of these performers are hilarious but it feels like they're only hitting up london πŸŒ† when will we see them elsewhere? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
 
I'm so stoked to see what's coming up in the comedy scene 🀣. I mean, who doesn't love a good laugh? The fact that Bridget Christie is doing this "Jacket Potato Pizza" thing at the Corn Exchange in Stamford on Jan 14th has got me curious, what's it all about? Is it a pizza party or something? And James Acaster's show in London sounds like a blast, can't wait to hear him chat on stage 🎀.

I also love that there's more artsy stuff coming up with Dada Masilo's Hamlet at Sadler's Wells. I've heard great things about her work and it'll be awesome to see it come alive on stage. As for the comedy gigs, Phil Wang's "Uh Oh" show in York looks hilarious, have you guys seen him before?
 
Can you believe how fast the year is flying by? I've already had to update my calendar for like, 3 times because of reschedulings 😩. Anyway, I'm so stoked that there are still some awesome comedy shows coming up! I mean, Adam Riches is always a hoot and I love him with Ball & Boe 🀣. What's got me a bit worried though is the fact that most of these events were supposed to happen before the pandemic hit. You know, like Bridget Christie's Jacket Potato Pizza show πŸ•... I hope all these shows can still go ahead as planned! And what's with all the theatre stuff? Dada Masilo's Hamlet at Sadler's Wells sounds SO cool! πŸ’ƒ
 
I'm literally so over how comedy festivals are just popping up everywhere and everyone's trying to be the next big thing! I mean, have you seen the lineup for Comedy at Corn Exchange in Stamford? It's like they're trying to outdo each other with who can do the most outrageous material. I swear, sometimes I think it's more about being edgy than actually being funny 🀣. And don't even get me started on how some of these events are still rescheduled or cancelled due to COVID... I mean, come on! Get it together, England! We're over here trying to have a laugh and now you're telling us your show is going to be delayed AGAIN? πŸ˜’

πŸ€” Just had a chance to browse through this comedy lineup and I'm so down for some laughs! πŸŽ‰ Got my eye on Bridget Christie's Jacket Potato Pizza - her wit is always on point πŸ’β€β™€οΈ. But what's with all the touring, though? πŸš— Can't they just stay in one place for once?! πŸ˜‚ And honestly, can someone explain to me why comedy shows are still happening in smaller towns like Stamford? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ I mean, don't get me wrong, it's great that people are getting out and about again, but I'd love to see some bigger venues make a comeback πŸŒ†. On the bright side, there are some awesome performers lined up - Phil Wang is always hilarious πŸ˜‚.
