SORRY, NO STAG OR HEN PARTIES
Stand Up For The Weekend with SARA BARRON and GUESTS
Featuring JOE SUTHERLAND plus compere CLINT EDWARDS
Saturday 25 January - 8pm (doors 7.15pm) - Tickets from £16
Headliner: SARA BARRON
Sara Barron is a relentlessly honest and desperately funny comic, relating brutal and sometimes filthy truths in a warm and welcoming way.
She is an American writer turned stand up living in London. While Stateside, she wrote for Vanity Fair, published two essay collections, and earned the role of host for the hit U.S. storytelling show, The Moth. This, in turn, gave her the bug for live performance. It also introduced her to her (British) husband, which prompted an eventual move to the UK. Her work has featured most recently on The Guilty Feminist, BBC R4Xtra, and Dave Gorman’s “Modern Life is Goodish”.
After a number of years in the UK, any semblance of American positivity has been stripped away, replaced by withering British cynicism. There’s certainly more than a hint of Joan Rivers’s cold contempt as she sneers at the joyous affirmations of others.
Sara couldn’t be brassier, sassier or louder-mouthed if she tried. She parades her sex life, friendships and militant subjectivity across the stage.
"Gleefully profane comic" The Guardian
"Barron proves herself an entertaining, no-nonsense presence" Chortle
“Explosive energy and beautifully crafted, no-nonsense stand-up... a masterful performance. Highly recommended” Sunday Times
Entry requirements: 16+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
