A BAFTA might do the trick. It certainly won’t hurt.

BIGHEAD run three mixed bill shows most months of the year. A Show Called Thursday in Hackney, Live at the Escape in Stratford and Live at Seven Dials Playhouse in Central London.
We also occasionally work with performers and groups on individual projects for performance at venues across London and at festivals around the UK.
We especially encourage acts who come from a non-traditional comedy performance background who would like to try performing on a mixed bill stand-up night.
If you would like to perform at one of our nights, or you have a project you'd like to pitch to us, please send a bio and video clips if you have them to:
