Big Comedy at the White Hart - Thursday 13th February

If you want to see top class comedy every month then Big Comedy at the White Hart in Southwark is the place for you! An exciting monthly night of stand-up and alternative comedy brought to you by some of the funniest comedians around.

This month we have another super-awesome lineup with 7 great acts!

Multi award-winning comedian 
SIMON MUNNERY
For over 35 years, Munnery has performed around the world, experimenting with and innovating the stand-up form. Simon Munnery is a British Comedy Award nominee, Perrier Award nominee, Sony Radio Award winner and Chortle Award winner. He’s most recently appeared in C4’s acclaimed Flowers, and will soon be seen in Will Sharpe’s Louis Wain movie biopic, co-starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Claire Foy.
In the 1990s, his Alan Parker: Urban Warrior character took the comedy circuit by storm, garnering Munnery his own BBC Radio 1 series, which Time Out London called ‘the funniest thing on Radio One’ and a residency on ITV’s Saturday Live. 1996 saw him collaborate with Graham Linehan and Stewart Lee for BBC2 show, London Shouting, in his Alan Parker guise, and the character also become a regular contributor to NME magazine.
“One of the funniest, most original comedians of the past twenty years” – The Guardian
“Marx, Engles and Sid Vicious would all have died laughing” - The Guardian
"Munnery’s parody of a punk rock anarcho snowflake, hand drawn with real love for its subject, returns to a world worse than any he could have imagined in his home decade of the 1980s” - Stewart Lee
