This show is from a previous year's festival

Some of our most treasured comedians, just telling stories. Brilliant ones. Simple as that really.

On this balmy spring night, Sarah Bennetto, will gather her comedy friends round a brilliant faux log campfire to tell witching hour tales to blow your mind and break your heart.

Storytellers’ Club is the cult creation of stand-up comic Sarah Bennetto, springing to life in 2006, after an evening of comics and musicians telling stories ‘round the campfire’. Shortly after, a monthly club was born, now resident year-round at Pleasance Islington, and appearing at UK music and arts festivals, the Melbourne Comedy Festival, and the Edinburgh Fringe.

Storytellers’ Club: you show, we tell.

‘A magical idea.’ The Metro

‘A chance to see some very fine comics and musicians including Josie Long and Robin Ince try their hand at storytelling. Think Jackanory, but without the books or Bernard Cribbins. In fact, don’t think Jackanory at all – just go and see it.’ Time Out

‘The general atmosphere is so warm and hospitable, none but the hardest-hearted of critics could help but fall prey to the gleeful intoxication and camaraderie championed by the show. There is liberal flirting, mic-swapping and impromptu dialogue, and it is a relief, as a reviewer, to see comedians perform in such non-threatening, snug conditions, free from the implicit danger of nail-biting dog-heckle-dog gigs.’ **** Three Weeks, Edinburgh

This show will be an hour long.

This show is for over 14’s only, under 16’s will need to be accompanied by an adult.

Additional booking fees are not being charged by the festival this year, but are being incorporated into the overall advertised ticket price. Please see the website for further information.
