Comedy Club 4 Kids
Sunday 13th September, Paisley Arts Centre
Join MC Stephen Halkett and comedians Chris Thorburn and Lee Kyle for some family-friendly fun.
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 and their families... but without the rude bits! 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 heckles like "why is that your face!?"
