Brian Gittins and Rob Rouse for Popcorn

We've got our live acts for Popcorn Comedy at the Victoria and they are... Brian Gittins and Rob Rouse. Woop!

Rob Rouse is one of Britain's most respected Stand-ups gathering a long list of TV credits, and is about to embark on his new show 'My Family And The Dog That Scared Jesus'.

Roadside cafe owner, Brain Gittins has been described by Ricky Gervais as "One of the best comedy characters of the decade". With his style of anti-jokes you keep thinking he’s going to say or do something revolting but he constantly up-ends your expectations winningly. He can also be found out and about with fellow grease merchant, Angelos Epithemiou.

Popcorn's Victoria debut is Thursday 25th March from 7pm. You can get your tickets for £5 (£4 Concessions) from popcornbrum.eventbrite.com

So while we start putting some videos together for you, here's a gimpse of Rob's stand up and Brian chewing the fat with Angelos Epithemiou.

Popcorn Comedy is back in Birmingham


We'll be bringing Popcorn Comedy back to Birmingham in March to inflict inoperable injuries to your sides with the best stand-ups, character comedians and videos once again.

Since the last Popcorn Comedy at the Electric Cinema - where we had the awesome Holly Walsh and Doc Brown - we've been drinking in the atmosphere of the London Popcorn nights, and we've decided, Birmingham deserves a slice of the action.

So Popcorn is back, but this time we're gonna switch it up a bit. The next Brum night will be on Thursday 25th March at The Victoria Pub. It'll be different to the night at The Electric, but we'll still have some top acts and the very best comedy videos going.

We'll update you with more details about acts, times, tickets and more soon. But in the meantime, tell everyone you know, Popcorn is coming, 25th March at The Victoria, and take a look at the Popcorn comedy website for what you have in store.

See you there,

Dice
