AFTERMIRTH/Daylight Comedy at The Barnfield Theatre, Exeter

The journey of parenthood is a magical and maddening one so what better way to cope with it than through stand up comedy! Daylight Comedy is a brand new adult comedy club aimed at sleep deprived parents, no baby sitter required.

We will have 3 top circuit comedians delivering their usual club routines so the material is mature and sweary…. The only difference is it’s during the day and babies under 18 months are welcome. The gig is also open to all parents, Aunts, Uncles, Grans, carers, in fact anyone who needs some afternoon comedy and doesn’t mind some cute babies in attendance. This special daytime 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 kitten and no one will moan or mutter if your little one cries or heckles. There’s snacks and drinks available in the café bar too, so treat yerself to cake, a stiff coffee or glass of fizz.

We’re delighted to announce we will be joined by Jenny Collier with a headline set from Jo Enright and compered by Angie Belcher.

Daylight Comedy is produced by local mother Lizzy Humber (Daylight Sessions) in collaboration with Angie Belcher (Aftermirth) and Reclaim Festival for Exeter Northcott. Daylight Sessions are daytime gigs where kids can come too, supported by Arts Council England.
