From the Army, to the Office and finally the stage and the (small.. really, really small) screen, Pat Smith is an award winning stand up comedian and has been referred to as a viral sensation on multiple occasions (that’s at least twice).
Armed with a sharp wit and a cheeky grin, the Essex born comedian has made waves since stepping up to the mic. In his first couple of years he racked up wins at top competitions like Frog and Bucket’s Beat The Frog, Up The Creek’s The Blackout and Leicester Comedy Festival’s Laughter Craft Gong before hitting the road to perform UK wide.
Pat’s comedy is derived from his experiences of life before, during and after the military. Whether it’s parenting, friends and family or world events, his unique perspective, observations and story telling will have you laughing from the get-go.
About Getaway Comedy
It’s all about the laughs at Getaway Comedy. Expect a delicious mix of playful, unapologetic, dark, punchy and (most importantly) very funny stand-up. Our main aim is to make sure our audiences have a top night out. Line-ups are booked purely on merit (ie. how funny each act is), with an emphasis on making sure there’s a variety of comedic styles for you to enjoy throughout the show. A spoonful of observational, a sprinkling of one-liners, a pinch of musical, a dollop of the daft… you get the picture. With all the crap going on in the world, Getaway Comedy is an opportunity to escape to laughter for a couple of hours.
Getaway Comedy have been putting on shows for over a decade (previously under the banner of The Stand-Up Club), and have built up a reputation as one of the best run and funniest comedy clubs in the UK. We also founded and run the £10,001 British Comedian of the Year competition, with the biggest cash prize in British comedy. With venues across London and the South, check out the nearest venue to you on our Venues Page.
