Since 2005, the Comedy Club 4 Kids has been getting the best stand-ups and sketch acts from the international circuit to do their thing for an audience of children (aged 6+) and their families… but without the rude bits! A decade later, the company has expanded from one London residency tobeing countrywide, running shows and workshops all over the UK from Peebles to Portsmouth, even producing a book on how to write and perform stand-up. The show is family friendly, but without any patronising idiocy. In fact, it's just like a normal comedy club, but it's on in the day, kids are allowed in, and thus there is a higher than usual chance of the entire audience claiming to becalled Bob.
"A highlight for children in recent years, giving thema taste of some of the biggest names in comedy... with the fun, rowdy feel of a real comedy club" – The Guardian
"An essential treat." - Fest Magazine
"Absolutely hilarious." - The Yorkshire Times
"The ethos is just right" - The Daily Telegraph
"The perfect way to entertain the whole family." -Three Weeks
"All in all this show was great." - The Scotsman
"Comedy Club 4 Kids has stand-up sets from grown-up, high-quality acts who perform their usual sets, just without the swearing or rude bits." - The Independent
"...plenty of full on laughs and tears of enjoyment from parents" Families Edinburgh
