SKETCHBURN: a scratch night for sketch comedy films

  • 265 Camden High Street London, England, NW1 7BU United Kingdom (map)

Welcome to the first-ever SKETCHBURN: the sketches of tomorrow, today!

 (And by ‘today’, I mean ‘Tuesday, 21st January’.)

 A ragtag group of comedy writers, performers and ne’er-do-wells present works-in-progress of their latest sketch comedy films. The aim: to bring the feedback loop of live comedy to filmed comedy sketches, at every stage of the process. To do this, the show is divided into three sections: 

  •  📚 The Readings: staged readings of brand-new sketch scripts

  • 🎬 The Rough Cuts: screenings of rough cuts fresh from the edit

  • 🍿The Showcase: screenings of finished sketches, ready to go

As well as listening out for what makes you laugh, there’ll be space for more direct feedback too – so you can help us decide which bits to keep and which bits to burn forever. 

So if you’re a fellow comedy creator who loves dissecting the metaphorical frog, or a comedy fan who wants to peek behind the metaphorical curtain, then SKETCHBURN is the (non-metaphorical) night for you!

There are no constraints on concession tickets, but buying a standard ticket helps support the show. (And if you want to skip the booking fee, you can call the box office directly: 020 7482 4857)
