Laughs for all ages
Another show to look out for is Kiell Smith-Bynoe & Friends: Kool Story Bro (18 July, Bush Hall). The star of Taskmaster, Ghosts, and Stath Lets Flats brings his unmissable improvised comedy show to Shepherds Bush, with scenes inspired the audience! Previous guests have included Jamie Demetriou, Munya Chawawa, Charlotte Ritchie, and Guz Khan.
There are laughs for youngsters as well! Comedy Club 4 Kids (20 July, Bush Hall) gets the best stand-ups, cabaret and sketch acts to do their thing for an audience of children (aged 6+) and their families… but without the rude bits! It’s just like a normal comedy club, but kids are allowed in!
