Presenting a large and diverse arts and entertainment programme over it’s 14 year history, the south coast venue has featured international and national performers, and also played host to a unique range of Komedia-grown resident shows such as the Krater Comedy Club, Kroon Kat Lounge and Bent Double.Equally adept at programming top-notch comedy, established and breaking music acts, eye-opening cabaret and brand new theatre throughout the year, Komedia’s devotion to booking the best in live entertainment is evident in recent and upcoming gigs from Duffy, Athlete, British Sea Power, Scouting For Girls, Henry Rollins, Gabriella Cilmi, The Kooks, Arctic Monkeys as well as stand-up from Bill Bailey, Flight of the Conchords, Richard Herring, Russell Howard, Omid Djalili, and Gina Yashere. It has also helped launch the careers of Graham Norton, the League of Gentlemen and The Mighty Boosh. Komedia aims to continue growing this role of honour in the all new Komedia Bath.Inspired by the European tradition of cabaret theatre where audiences can enjoy a meal while watching a show, Komedia Brighton has won many awards including Best Cultural Destination in the City and the Chortle Award for ‘Best Comedy Venue in the South’ an incredible six times. Komedia is also active on the Edinburgh Fringe, producing venues and promoting its artists and resident shows, and is a producer of broadcast entertainment.Getting the radio and TV comedy stars who started out with us back on stage at Komedia is always appealing, so having Jenny Éclair and Count Arthur Strong with us for the first Bath Comedy Festival in April is very satisfying. We will also be hosting a new show, in Brighton and Bath, in 2009 called Variety Lives!, which will bring comedy favourites like Arthur Smith, John Cooper Clark, Andy Hamilton and Barb Jungr back to our stage in a monthly variety show.

“Fantastic Burlesque Caberet”

Reviewed 30 April 2012

April 2012. Hen-do. Booked the cheep seat tickets for the Friday night Burlesque Caberet. We were a party of 7 and arrived just 20 minutes before the show started. We were all seated together, and were pleased there was table service before the show and during the interval for drinks. The tables were long canteen style, and it was tightly... More

“Comedy good - go somewhere else to eat”

Reviewed 17 April 2012

Went to the Komedia in Bath for a much anticipated hen do, for meal and comedy, priced at £28.50. We were literally crammed into our seats, to the point where we could not leave to use the toilet unless we climbed on the table. Bearing in mind the various ages in the group and the fact that several hens were... More

“Stags, hens and racist comedian”

Reviewed 12 April 2012

Fairly mixed evening at comedy night on a Sarurday Bought the meal deal and had the £10 burger. This was really disappointing. Tiny burger in a supermarket soft white bun with a splash of tomato chutney and salad. £4 a pint. Slightly oppressive presence of all the hen parties and the first comedian was a dull boorish plagiarising sexist racist.... More

“DEPENDS ON WHO YOU ARE SEEING”

Reviewed 27 March 2012

I have been here a few times to see specific acts, so knew that I would have a good time and I did. I suspect that it would be awful, if you are doing the meal deal thing with random club comics as it is with other places. So it is really down to who is on. The actual place... More

“A really good night out would return”

Reviewed 25 February 2012

Came here for a friends birthday. Limited food menu but what I had was very nice and plenty of it. Very friendly staff. Good show when we visited. If you still have stamina you can stay on for the dancing after the comedy show. I thought it was a really good night out, good value and nice to do something... More
