Laugh Train Home is known for hilarious comedy nights, a fun atmosphere and a bit of the unexpected...
For over THREE years, we have been bringing you the best UK and International comedians, including Joe Lycett, Seann Walsh, Josh Widdicombe, Reginald D. Hunter, Sara Pascoe and more, every Wednesday.
SUMMER PREVIEW SEASON
Every year, thousands of comics bring comedy shows to the internationally known Edinburgh Fringe Festival. But those shows need to be tweaked and refined, honed and perfected...and that's happening at Laugh Train Home. Don't miss this behind-the-scenes unique opportunity to see these Work in Progress shows. This is how live stand-up comedy is put together.
Across June and July we will be featuring acts like Romesh Ranganathan (Live at the Apollo), Zoe Lyons (Live at the Apollo), Seann Walsh (8 Out of 10 Cats), Marcus Brigstocke (Have I Got News for You) and more. Check out our website www.laughtrainhome.com for full line-ups.
SPECIAL COMEDY EVENT - THURSDAY JULY 12TH!
ROSIE JONES: FIFTEEN MINUTES (WORK IN PROGRESS)
Fifteen Minutes is the debut hour of critically acclaimed comedian Rosie Jones (8 Out Of 10 Cats, Silent Witness). In the show, Rosie will ask the question, “Who would I be if I were able-bodied”? Nobody knows, but Rosie's hunch is she's probably a knobhead!
KERRY GODLIMAN: STICK OR TWIST
Kerry Godliman's straight talking brand of quick wit and bewilderment will be covering more of life’s anomalies. Why is there a Buddha at the garden center? Why collect her children’s teeth? And even though she can't stand aubergines, why is it her favorite emoji? There’s loads to get sorted. Be there. She’ll do all the talking.
‘…A great comic who oozes personality’Evening Standard
Intelligent, silly and – at all the right moments – laced with righteous ire.’ The Guardian
Kerry has been seen on Live at The Apollo, Derek, Mock the Week and many many more.

IVO GRAHAM: Motion Sickness (Preview)
A feisty new hour about facing the future named after my fourth favourite Hot Chip song (and a beaut by Phoebe Bridgers).
Mock the Week, Live at The Apollo, As Yet Untitled, Live from The BBC and Fighting Talk.
‘Sharp punchlines, topper gags and the unmistakable sense of a young comic finding another gear’ The Scotsman
‘Like Hugh Grant’s less well-adjusted younger brother’ The Guardian
JOHN HASTINGS: Float Like a Butterfly, John Hastings Like a Bee (Preview)
Last year, John Hastings was hit by a car and broke his arm. He then became homeless (his choice) with a long distance girlfriend (her choice) and now has a lot of thoughts on pigeons and bicycles (your choice). A tale of displacement, death and denial (don't worry, there are jokes too).
Comedy Central, BBC Seann Walsh’s Late Night Comedy Spectacular.

A brand-new stand-up show from the perennial Fringe favourite. Always warm, witty and thought-provoking, this is Lucy's best show yet.

Lucy's inherited dodgy knees and global warming from her parents, but can she leave a better legacy for her children?
