A Night of Comedy at Shirley Community Library

Festive Fundraiser Promises Big Laughs for a Great Cause

Get ready for an unforgettable evening of laughter, festive cheer and top-class entertainment as Shirley Community Library presents A Night of Comedy on Friday 11 December 2026.

This special adults-only fundraising event brings together some of the UK's finest comedy talent for a Christmas night out with a difference. Whether you're planning a festive get-together with friends, a date night, or simply looking for a brilliant evening of entertainment, this promises to be one of Shirley's standout Christmas events.

Hosting the evening is acclaimed comedian Erich McElroy, whose sharp observations and unique perspective as an American living in Britain have delighted audiences nationwide. A familiar face across BBC and Sky News programmes, Erich combines intelligent humour with infectious charm.

Joining him are two exceptional comedy talents. Michael Fabbri, star of BBC Radio 4's Dyslexicon and support act for the likes of Micky Flanagan, Lucy Porter and Angela Barnes, is renowned for his brilliantly crafted stand-up. Also appearing is Kate Martin, praised by Chortle for her confident delivery and slick material. Her energetic storytelling, razor-sharp observations and fresh perspective have quickly made her one of the most exciting acts on the UK comedy circuit.

Headlining the evening is Robert White, the musical comedy sensation and runner-up on Britain's Got Talent. Known for his rapid-fire jokes, hilarious songs and uniquely original style, Robert is one of the most sought-after comedians in the country and is guaranteed to bring the night to a memorable close.

Doors open at 6.30pm, allowing guests time to enjoy a drink, meet friends and soak up the festive atmosphere before the show begins.
