COMEDY: GIG OF THE WEEK
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

The Hen & Chickens, London N1
It sometimes seems as if the best way for a good comedian to get ahead is to masquerade as a bad comedian. Shed-loads of stand-ups are taking on the guise of washed-up entertainers. Two of the best bad comics - Count Arthur Strong and Terry Titter - are joining forces in "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet!", billed as "a stagecraft masterclass based on lifetimes in the business". Titter (played by Terry Kilkelly) is a pathetic, dipsomaniac entertainer who comes on stage swigging a bottle of vodka. Strong (Steve Delaney), is an underemployed performer whose career is a litany of "what ifs" and "if onlys".
Double bill with Divine David, The Hen & Chickens, London, N1 (0171- 704 2001) tomorrow
