The Independent Recommends: Comedy
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.

Returning to his stand-up roots, Frost makes for a lively performer - particularly at Edinburgh, where he makes a point of trying to appear in as many different shows as possible. He's MC for a bill featuring the talented Adam Bloom at a club opening tonight.

Critics have saddled Electric Eel with the huge burden of being dubbed "the new Monty Python". They may not be that, but the trio of Dan Clark, Adam Goodwin and Cliff Kelly are certainly worth a visit, as recent appearances on BBC2's Comedy Nation have shown. Part of the burgeoning sketch-comedy industry, the troupe specialises in fantastical, imaginative scenarios.
