Doors: 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
Price: £5

A work in progress show by the 2025 BBC New Comedy Awards Winner Eli Hart.

You know those awful little thoughts you pretend you don’t have? BBC New Comedy Award winner Eli Hart is going to say a few of them out loud.

In this work-in-progress of his debut hour, “Let Me Stop You Right There,” Eli picks apart life’s quieter irritations: staring at yourself during a haircut, enduring an evening with hippies, being mistaken for a garden centre employee, and trying to survive crazy people on the bus.

“A remarkable astuteness about the minutiae of mundane existence” – Chortle

“Imagine a Brummie, even gloomier young Jack Dee” – Beyond the Joke
