Charity Chuckle

Event information

All proceeds from the show will go to the local charity, RISE, which supports women, children and young people experiencing domestic violence by offering a helpline, crisis accommodation, advice, support, information and counselling across Brighton & Hove and West Sussex. Every year RISE supports over 800 women and their children to recover from abuse and reclaim their lives.
Charity Chuckle is a monthly stand-up comedy night raising money for local charities in Brighton. Each month features the most exciting up-and-coming comedians from Brighton’s exploding comedy scene and the London circuit, and a fabulous established comedian to headline the night.
Unlike most comedy nights, this is an early one – the show starts at 7pm – so it is perfect both for those who need to get home and those who want to hit the clubs!
