Pete Firman + Richard Herring + Tiernan Douieb

Tuesday, 23 June

The Compass, 58 Penton Street, Kings Cross, N1 9PZ

Comedy: , Sketches, Stand Up

How Much: £7.00 (Entry) , £6.00 (Concessions)
Fat Tuesdays is a fortnightly comedy night compered by cheerful funnyman, Tiernan Douieb and held above the Compass bar on Penton Street.

Every Tuesday throughout June and July, Fat Tuesdays are holding Edinburgh preview shows, where two top stand-up comics will perform their newest material ahead of the Fringe. All the line-ups are excellent but we particularly like the look of this one.

Richard Herring produced a blinding show last year which got loads of 4 and 5 star reviews. This year he looks to top it with a show about moustaches - in particular Chaplin's. Or Hitler's, depending how you look at it. He talks about iconography, the positive side of racism and why innocent square inch of facial hair took blame for Nazism.

The title of Pete Firman's show New Jokes, New Tricks might give away what's in store for the audience. There's never a dull moment at a Firman gig and we can't wait to see the latest material from this guy, hailed by many as the top comic magician in the UK.

Fat Tuesdays is one of our Top Ten Small Comedy Clubs in London
