Comedy & Jazz

29 Oct 2026 - 7 Jan 2027

Comedy and jazz have always shared a mischievous heartbeat. From the smoky clubs of the 1940s where standups riffed between bebop sets to the latenight TV era where house bands punctuated punchlines, the two art forms have grown up side by side. Both rely on sharp timing, fearless improvisation and the thrill of live performance. Our Comedy & Jazz Night brings that legacy to the stage. The band wont be hidden away, theyll be right there with the comedians, Tonight Show style, adding musical stings, playful riffs and a live soundtrack that lifts every joke. After the comedy wraps, the musicians take over with a full jazz set, turning the room into a latenight lounge and keeping the energy flowing long after the last punchline.
The Secret Comedy Club Open Mic Aka See You Next Tuesday
Brighton's longest running and most popular comedy open mic night. We're the leading new-material and open-mic night on the South Coast. Hosted in an independent venue that welcomes a mix of professional, semi-professional, and amateur comedians. This is a fast paced event. Come and watch some of the best comics on the open circuit live or die. Hilarious or painful but never mediocre!
