Beat the Pit

Welcome to Beat the Pit at The Grit Pit.

Ten comedians step into the spotlight. Each has 2.5 minutes to survive before the audience can vote them off. If they’re smashing it, they might earn an extra minute. If not… the pit decides.

This is raw, underground, chaotic comedy — a mix of bold newcomers and sharp, curated acts. Expect big risks, bigger laughs, and absolutely no coasting.

One act will outlast the rest and win the Canary Cup (and a small cash prize). The rest? They’ll hear about it.

Brutal. Electric. Very Sheffield.

Are you brave enough to book?
