Stand Up Tragedy
London, United Kingdom
Collective of artists committed to bringing Stand-up-Tragedy to new audiences.
Stand-up tragedy is, according to critics that reviewed our nights, "a fluid form that takes in everything from music to comedy and is characterised by an emphasis on truth. Dave Pickering, the founder of a night dedicated to it, describes it thus: "It's an open term. When someone stands up to do tragedy, it's their take on what a tragedy is. Sometimes tragedy is funny, sometimes it leaves you in tears – the results are tremendously varied."
