The Comedy Social

30th April £17.50 - £35.00

Event Sold Out!

There is a revised running order that we emailed out to everyone yesterday (see below) due to travel issues with our London based comics. Gates now open 6.45pm with comedy starting at 7.20pm.

Great news for comedy fans! Northwood House presents the first of it’s new Comedy Socials…a chance to get together with some friends and have a right old laugh!

On Saturday 30th April we’ll be bringing three new up and coming comics from the UK comedy circuit to the Northwood House Ballroom, who’ll get the chance to tickle our ribs with their topical and inappropriate jokes and get our belly laughs going. This is the first of three scheduled comedy socials, with others to follow later in the year.

Don’t expect household names though (you’d be having a laugh at this ticket price!) but these guys come very highly recommended to us by a top comedy agency…so here are the little jokers:

HORATIO GOULD

About Horatio:

Horatio is a London based writer/comedian who since making the final of ‘South Coast Comedian of the Year’ in 2019 has gone on to be one of the most exciting new voices on the comedy circuit. Horatio is known for a blend of absurd observations and dry social commentary as well as being especially good at riffing and improvising with any crowd.

Horatio Gould is undoubtedly the SPICIEST comedian on the circuit. Been described by spice merchant’s as the ‘VINDALOO of comedy!!’

So let’s get social and have a laugh!

This is all about a sociable night out and doing something different in Cowes rather than going to the pub or out for dinner! So gather some mates or some girlfriends…or even the other half and come along!

The vibe is very much “comedy club”, with a relaxed lounge and table seating plan…perfect for relaxing with friends on a fun night out! As well as the comedy we will have some great live acoustic music from local Cowes boys, the Jimmy’s Little Fish Duo, who’ll be here to open and close the Comedy Social and entertain us during the interval.

“Jimmy’s Little Fish Duo” 

The Northwood House Bar will be open all through the evening from 6.45pm to 11pm for drinks and bar snacks, with table service also available through our on-line drinks app.
