About Commissioned

A night of new comedy commissioned by YOU. You suggest a subject and we provide the comedy. Send a theme to Commissioned Comedy on Facebook or tweet @CommissionedCom. One winning suggestion will have an entire night of comedy created around it.

We've done nature, holidays, pets, nightmares, furniture, neighbours, what's next?! Come along on 2 April to find out if the show has been commissioned by YOU. Stand up, sketches, poetry, music, art, characters and more hosted by Elaine Malcolmson (‘full of comedy life’ Skinny) and commissioned by you.

Previous performers include Mark Nelson, Chris Forbes, Alan Bissett, Viv Gee, Kevin P Gilday, Julia Sutherland, Steven Dick and Ruth Hunter.
