Comedy Gobbledygook

Comedy Gobbledygook Showcasing the talented up-and-coming comedians (see them live in a small venue before they make it to Live at the Apollo)!

Comedy Gobbledygook was launched in March 2017 to put Bermondsey, the ever-gentrifying heart of Southeast London yet the then comedy desert within zone 2, on London's comedy map. The night takes place on the 2nd Tuesday each month. Door opens at 7:30pm and the show starts at 8pm and aims to finish promptly by 10pm. Our venue is the gorgeous Gregorian Arm's at 96 Jamaica Road, SE16 4SQ. It's only a

few minute walk from Bermondsey station (Jubilee line, after London Bridge for eastbound trains). Twitter:

We pitched ourselves to be the showcase room for quirky and diverse acts from the London open mic circuit when the show was launched. As we are now attracting interests from comedians based outside London, we are bringing an even larger pool of Talents to Bermondsey's front door. Where we are able to secure professional comedians to come trying out new materials, the show is closed by a professional headliner, as often has been the case since last summer. Entry is free, we also offer free shots at the door. If you like the night, we will collect donations based on your own discretion at the end of the show that reward the comedians who perform. (For comedians who wish to perform with Comedy Gobbledygook, we are not able to take any further spot requests this year. Apologies as the show has been oversubscribed. We are fully booked until July and spots at any later dates this year will be offered to acts who previously inquired but have not been allocated any spots yet)

That’s a wrap for our second show! Thank you for the lovely but predominantly North London audience who came tonight (not as many accents as the first show 🤣 but we had Venezuelan/Lithuanian/French and a Scottish couple that will count, too!). Thank you for the amazing acts and the venue see you at our live show next year. In the meantime, don’t forget our podcast episodes!

Hi all! Bermondsey's beloved Comedy Gobbledygook is still in hiatus, but our sister night with a niche concept "Comedy with an Accent" will launch this coming Saturday May 28th! The venue will be 2Northdown in King's Cross, so it should be easier to get to for many more comedy afictionados!

Hosted by your ever-more-shady and mischievous MC Kuan-wen, who himself's got a distinct accent, the launch night has a diverse award-winning line up. We will also talk about accents and foreign languages between the acts, plus some silly games. If you are a comedy nerd and/or a language/foreign culture geek, this is not to be missed!

We have a special surprise for you - our comedy show tonight will be guest hosted by the talented rising star: actor, writer and comedian Emily Woods.

https://www.facebook.com/events/182752869601456/

Emily was shortlisted for The 99 Club Comedy Bursary and she was Up The Creek Club's One to Watch Finalist and Max Turner Award Finalist in 2019. Your usual Gobbledygook MC worked in a video shoot with Emily plus the toy in the red jacket (that is “Jessica the Sucka”, not Emily!) last year, so he is leaving the show in her capable hands tonight.

Emily was also featured in our June 2019 show. Come watch her tonight!

*In fact, if you watch our promotional video close enough, you can even find Emily in a powerful delivery of her gag in the clip.

It's the 2019 end-of-the-year thank you from Comedy Gobbledygook again! We've had 10 shows in Bermondsey this year (not including our Edinburgh Fringe outing), 75 comics in total, out of which 46 of them were brand new faces at our small show.

Thank you to all those who got in the door to give live comedy a go and to all those who come back, sometimes again and again. Have a lovely holiday time and happy new year in advance : )

After four days of adult-only comedy shows in Edinburgh, we are back to the “Edinburgh Fringe - school-age children strike again” theme. But the comics handled it like pros!

The comedy show at the Fringe that (could) cater to the entire family. Just like the hour in front of the TV before Christmas lunch.

Ten more shows to go and we will be back in Bermondsey London soon!

Line up may still be subject to changes as time draws near, but we proudly present the team of comics that will help bring Comedy Gobbledygook to Edinburgh this year.

(Definitely better and more competent than BoJo's new cabinet)
