Bright Club is the place where public engagement and stand-up comedy collide. Academics and researchers - most of whom have never done comedy before - take to the stage to perform an 8 minute routine about their area of expertise. Following successes in Edinburgh, Dundee and other cities around the country, Bright Club is coming to St Andrews.

Apologies for the delay in updating the site- academic life continues after Bright Club and I've been testing most days. However I now have a break, and so I shall give you updates!
Our first Bright Club St Andrews event was a resounding success! We filled the room and I think we made a few friends and fans. We're already preparing for the next one, so keep April 30th open, folks!
