PaulyGigography2026 ≫ Robert Smith's Comedy Favourites

Royal Albert Hall Royal Albert Hall, Kensington Gore, London, SW7 2AP

Robert Smith of The Cure likes a laugh doesn't he? He's "cureating" the Teenage Cancer Trust charity gigs at the royal albert hall, and wife got me tickets for the comedy night for christmas.

Maisie Adam, Bridget Christie, Jack Dee, Andy Hamilton, Dom Joly, Miles Jupp, Athena Kugblenu, Stewart Lee and Dara Ó Briain announced so far. Are they really his favourites? An odd mix.

I went to this one, more from this year in my gigography for 2026. I have seen Stewart Lee at least 10 times; Fist Of Fun @ University of Portsmouth (1995), Glastonbury ('99), Glastonbury (2003), Stewart Lee - Vegetable Stew @ Leicester Square Theatre (2010), Stewart Lee - Carpet Remnant World @ Leicester Square Theatre ('12), Leicester Square Theatre (2014), Brighton Dome ('15), Edinburgh Assembly Rooms ('15), Bob Slayer's HoHo Theatre @ venue undefined ('15), + Stewart Lee vs The Man Wulf @ EAT (2025). Part of every gig I went to from '87 to 2025. A natural step from my Best Gigs Ever blog post. Yeah I know it's very geeky, let's let that go though, I'm having fun reminiscing about this stuff.
