Scandal. Revelation. Holding the mic weird.
Intrepid investigative journalist (alternative stand-up comedian) Marina has uncovered something huge. A trail of sharp observations and unexpected connections lead to an ugly secret that goes all the way to the top.
Comedy will never be the same again.

WEDNESDAY 29TH OCTOBER! Spooky and Silly Night of Horror/Comedy
-
In 1816, the eruption of Mount Tambora led to the “Year Without a Summer”. No sunshine, no warmth, no harvest. Mary Shelley and Percy Bysshe Shelley were visiting Lord Byron by Lake Geneva and were dead bored. Stuck inside in the gloom, Byron had the idea to have a ghost story writing competition. Mary Shelley (18) was initially stressed, but soon wrote Frankenstein.
In 2025, a small number of writers and comedians will gather in the gorgeous velvet basement of Aces and Eights on “the Wednesday of Halloween” to rapidly write and read some spooky and funny tales by torchlight, trying their hardest not to pull a Mary Shelley and accidentally write a hugely influential work of gothic literature.
-
For traditional ghost stories, horror-comedy, comedy-horror, and some delightfully spooky surprises, join us for one night only. Wimps welcome.

Doors 7.30pm, Show Starts 8.00pm Finished by 10pm, with Interval Why not grab a pizza upstairs before

Wed 29th October, an amazing lineup of brave writers and comedians will gather in the Aces and Eights basement to take on the Try Not To Write Frankenstein Challenge: to frantically write a horror/comedy short story and NOT pen a hugely influential work of gothic literature. Acts will read their tales aloud by torchlight, and hopefully there won't be any ghoulish surprises...
your move Mr Beast
wimps welcome

Our final act for the first show is Marina Smith!
Marina is a thoroughly dishonest stand-up with an alt sensibility. This Leicester Comedy Festival 2025 Circuit Breaker WILL make observations and MIGHT take off her shoes.
Keep your eyes peeled for more over the next few days!
