A fantastic night of standup comedy, with big names, circuit regulars and rising stars, all taking to the stage in Tring. Doors open at 6.30pm, so you have time to enjoy the bar before the show starts at 7.30pm. Two and a half hours of fun and laughter, including two intervals, before the metaphorical curtain comes down at 10pm. The last show was a SELL OUT so be sure to get your tickets early.

​

​The Old Church House is on Western Road, near the mini roundabout at the top of the High Street. It is a compact venue with an intimate atmosphere and a capacity of just 112 seats. Ticket holders choose their own seats, so arrive in good time to select the best ones. We can not guarantee that groups will sit together. Sorry, the venue is not wheelchair friendly, with stepped access to the performance area​.

The BLITHERING IDIOT GROUP was formed by Andy Pethick and Nicholas Shaun in 2015. Sharing a love of comedy and a desire to both promote and perform stand up, they have organised many successful gigs in Berkhamsted, Tring, Wendover and Hanslope (nr Milton Keynes). Their biggest show is The BIG Comedy Night which has never failed to sell out in its 5-show run.​

Andy Pethick

Andy writes carefully crafted jokes about supermarkets and scout leaders, all delivered in a world weary style that makes Jack Dee seem rather jolly. He is well known for wearing a suit on stage, but seldom wears a hat. Aside from looking debonair (his words), he believes that if nobody finds him funny, at least his mum will be proud.

Nicholas Shaun

Nicholas has a dream... to one day perform live at The Apollo, but recognises this will most likely be a Greek taverna. He has gigged in numerous pubs in the local area and was once invited to perform in Sweden - to an audience who, it became apparent halfway through his act, did not understand a word of English.
