daytime comedy with aftermirth, friday 12th april

And now for something completely different…..

We don’t need to tell you that the journey of parenthood is a magical and maddening one so what better way to cope with it than through stand up comedy! Aftermirth is an adult comedy club that you can bring your baby to.

Join us for this free event in our upstairs room at noon on Friday April 12th for what we hope will become a regular booking.

Top circuit comedians will deliver their usual club routines so the material is mature and sweary with the odd birth story flash back…. The only difference is it’s during the day. Babies under 18 months are welcome, but please don’t bring older toddlers because they tend to heckle!

This special afternoon gig has reduced amplification and a dimmed room so no one will notice those red eyes from sleepless nights. You’re encouraged to bottle, breast or Haribo feed and you can walk about or shake Mittens the Special Rabbit in order to soothe your offspring and no one will moan or mutter if your little one cries or screams.

The gig is also open to parents, Aunts, Uncles, Grans, carers, in fact anyone who needs some afternoon comedy and doesn’t mind some cute babies in attendance.

The headliner for the first Aftermirth show is someone we know and love here at the Exmouth. Jon Wagstaffe, hailing all the way from Tewkesbury, runs Scallywags Comedy. Described as “A naturally sharp & funny comedian.” by Patrick Monahan, you’re in for a treat.

Note there’s limited space, so leave the buggy behind if you can or park it in our “buggy park” at the end of the car park.

Aftermirth is lovingly curated and compered by Angie Belcher. Find out more here.
