a once-monthly comedy and music club, upstairs at the george in hitchin
The comedy double act Doggett and Ephgrave cordially invite you to their comedy and music club, 'Mostly Comedy', which runs 'mostly' once a month, 'mostly' at the George in Hitchin.
The duo were inspired by the variety of late-night comedy nights they encountered whilst playing the Edinburgh Festival, and wanted to set up a club with a similar informal atmosphere and high quality entertainment value, here in their home town of Hitchin.
Each night features an entertaining mix of stand-up, sketch comedy and music – with the opportunity for attendees to grab an 'open mic' slot and show the audience what they're worth. The evening's entertainment is hosted by Doggett and Ephgrave, with music from the 'mostly comedy' house-band Spandex Ballet.
