About This Show
Lisbon's first and only interactive comedy show is a wild ride! Bring your problems, get the worst and funniest life advice possible!
⭐ Rated 4.9/5 on Google and TripAdvisor (200+ reviews)
It's just like therapy, but hilarious!
Here's how it works:
Part 1 — Standup Comedy. A rotating cast of brilliant comedians perform proper standup. Different lineup every week, always funny, always in English.
Intermission — drinks, breathing room, reconsider your life choices. This is where you start thinking about what problem you want to submit for Part 2.
Part 2 — Bad Advice. This is the bit that makes the show completely unique. YOU bring your problems — relationship drama, career crises, flatmate disasters, existential questions, anything — and our comedians give you the worst (and funniest) life advice possible, fully improvised on the spot. It's chaotic, it's personal, and people absolutely love it.
Will your problem get solved? Absolutely not. Will you laugh so hard you forget about it? Almost certainly.
Hosted by Francesco Kirchhoff with a different lineup of comedians each week.
Capacity is extremely limited. This is a small, intimate room and it fills up fast. Please RSVP — and if your plans change, update your RSVP so someone else can take your spot!

What People Say
"Great spot to listen to some English language comedy. The owner and host is very interactive and funny. Love the place and will definitely be back. And highly recommend to anyone who's a fan of stand up."
"Great comedy club, intimate, and highly entertaining. This Lisbon gem should be a staple of the nightlife as it is a fantastic venue and the artists have been very good on our visits. Highly recommend!"
"I had loads of fun at their Friday night show. The venue is very cool, ran by and for comedians. This is a no brainer if you are solo travelling as the bar staff look after you and comedy is a great ice breaker when meeting people."
"I have been here twice now, and really enjoyed the experience both times. If you are looking for diverse, multicultural comedy all in English in Lisbon, this is the place! There is also a secretive speakeasy vibe to the bar and its entrance which is a really nice touch."
