Comedy speed dating up the creek

On Wednesday night we stepped out in search of love and laughter at Greenwich comedy club, Up The Creek, for their first comedy speed dating night.Based on the usual speed dating format, the organisers started the night because of their frustration with boring events where laughter seemed frowned upon.However, the talkative Lenny does not like to make things too simple, and also has to avoid being the one to actually pull the trigger.

The bickering and posturing builds up until the fighting begins.Best of all, a varied schedule greets comedy lovers from all backgrounds during the week.The first Wednesday of every month sees the unique innovation of comedy speed dating; Thursdays play host to the Comedy Variety show, a free open mic night where new comedians can take their first stand-up steps in front of a legendarily tough comedy audience; Fridays and Saturdays see a traditional line-up of stand-up comedians, followed by a less traditional disco after the show; finally, the weekly Sunday Special event offer a first class end to the week.But who will survive in such a bloodthirsty age as this? It tells the story of Gabe, who has decided to end his life, but needs a little help.Lenny offers his services for people in such a situation.
