Hungerford Comedy Club is our town's very own comedy venue, featuring professional acts from the Comedy Circuit in London and the South. Every two months, we will host a line up of established comedy talent, including acts that have graced the stage of bigger venues like the world famous Comedy Store and have TV and radio credits to their names.
Our upcoming show is on Friday, November 22, 2019 in Croft Hall. Doors open at 19:30:00, show starts at 20:00:00.
Ben van der Velde - Fablemaker
Ben van der VeldeBen van der Velde returns to HCC with his one man show.
An improvised comedy adventure with this "master of audience interaction" (Huffington Post) as he raids the library of his fantastical imagination to create thrillers, romances, ghost stories and more original freewheeling tales that have never been told before and never will be again. Fresh from the Edinburgh Fringe, having woven tales of artisanal meth dealers from Shropshire trying to assassinate their Mexican rivals, child-kidnapping psychologists, hotly pursued by three fairy godmothers and a pair of track and field-loving priests and thrillers involving the KGB, Austrian eco-terrorists and Slobodan Milosevic's accountant. If you like Ross Noble, then you'll adore Ben's unique approach to comedy,
