About this event
Plymouth Laughter Lab enters an exciting new chapter as we make our debut in the impressive Main Hall at the University of Plymouth, bringing even bigger comedy nights to the heart of the city. To celebrate our new home, we're delighted to welcome one of Britain's most celebrated comedians, Mark Steel, for a very special extended 45-minute work in progress headline performance. A familiar face from Live at the Apollo, Have I Got News For You, QI, Mock the Week, and the award-winning BBC Radio 4 series Mark Steel's in Town, Mark has spent decades establishing himself as one of the UK's finest stand-up comedians. This exclusive performance offers audiences the rare opportunity to see him developing and performing brand-new material ahead of his next national tour, making this a truly unique evening of live comedy. Joining Mark is the exceptional Burt Williamson, one of the most exciting rising stars on the UK comedy circuit. With his distinctive comic voice, sharp writing and brilliantly original material, Burt has quickly built a reputation as a comedian destined for big things. Hosting the evening is Plymouth comedy favourite Suzy Bennett. A winner of the prestigious Funny Women Award and a familiar face on comedy stages across the UK, Suzy's infectious energy, effortless crowd work and natural warmth make her the perfect host to guide you through an unforgettable evening. Whether you're a long-time supporter of Plymouth Laughter Lab or joining us for the very first time, this promises to be a landmark night for live comedy in the city. Expect a fantastic atmosphere, a professionally curated line-up and the chance to see one of Britain's comedy greats in an intimate setting before his newest material reaches theatres nationwide. Line-ups are subject to change without penalty or refund.
