King Street, Bristol, BS1 4ED

Description

‘I’m not gonna stand up in front of a bunch of strangers and tell stories about you and me.’

She’s signed them both up. Her and her husband. For stand-up comedy.

So tonight, they’re locking themselves in their living room until they’ve got a ‘tight five’, delving through their past for material. But some jokes hurt, and laughter isn’t always the best medicine.

With the clock ticking and nothing but a baby monitor for an audience, they wrestle with the spotlight as questions about their future are forced to the surface.
