Adam Bloom + Paul Foot + Phil Nichol + Matt Kirshen + Tiffany Stevenson

Monday, 20 April

The Phoenix, 37 Cavendish Square, Oxford Street, W1G 0PP

Comedy: Stand Up

How Much: £5.00 (Entry) , £3.00 (Concessions)

Heroic comedy veterans Adam Bloom and Paul Foot headline a rather special edition of this comedy stalwart, a long-standing fans' favourite.

If.comedy winner Phil Nichol and Tiffany Stevenson are the hosts of Old Rope, a weekly Monday night show where leading comedians, circuit regulars and newcomers debut material in front of an enthusiastic and supportive crowd.

Old Rope
gets its name from the noose that hangs above the stage which the comedians hold onto while performing new material. They are allowed to mix in some old reliable bits but can only let go of the rope when telling the new stuff.

This is a really popular, innovative and cheap night. Plus it's always refreshing to see comedians forced to abandon their safety net.
