Comedy Preview: Joke Party @ The Wilmington Arms, Angel

joke_party.jpg The January blues are officially over and keeping a bleak diary can now be a thing of the past. Why not get the week going with a visit to infamous Camden hang out The Hawley Arms' sister pub The Wilmington Arms in Angel for the first of a new monthly series, Joke Party. As the name suggests there will be plenty of comedy, fun and silly behaviour hosted by William Andrews whom The Times suggests "is funny".

Joke Party has been started to provide a home for the work of comedians whose sensibilities aren't that of the mainstream, and also as an excuse for a bit of a knees up. Tomorrow night's opener features an impressive list of up and coming comedians; Andrea Donovan, Anna & Katy, Bridget Christie, Colin Hoult, Mathew Baynton, Sophie Black and Tommy And The Weeks.

With a mission to showcase the finest rising comedy talent in the country, this looks set to become a promising night for mid-week fun in the capital. Doors open at 7pm with the comedy getting underway at 7.30pm.

Joke Party @ The Wilmington Arms, Angel takes place on Tue 2nd Feb at 7pm, £7/5 (concessions), for more information visit The Wilmington Arms website.
