It's hard to find the words.

We are incredibly saddened and shocked by the passing of Clare Jarvis.
She was a house favourite for us and for many of our regulars, and she will be truly missed.

Clare's comedy characters, especially her songs and her singer impersonations were so great and funny, she was never scared to speak her mind, and always thought for herself.

The Brighton comedy community is going to feel this loss pretty deeply.

We send our love to her children and her family, and we hope we can show some support, in some way.

I will be joining Tami at the Caroline of Brunswick tonight at 8 to raise a glass for Clare, so if you can join, it would be nice to see some of you there.

💔 -Jack.

Do you art? 🖼️

We were working on the event pages for the next year's worth of Cabaret Lab shows, and we had an idea open it out to anyone that may like to do one!

We'd like to showcase even more talent, not just what's on stage.
If you'd like to create an event page cover, just email [email protected] and we'll send you some details.

They can be digital, hand-drawn, painted, done in crayon, anything you want. I hope some of you want to get involved, and we can't wait to see your art! ❤️

All hail Obonjo!
If it's gonna take Joe Rogan to get involved like he did with Carlos Mencia, then so be it. This is not ok. Please support President Obonjo - (Obonjo Comedian).
