Baby-friendly comedy club returns for festive event

The popular Bring Your Own Baby (BYOB) comedy club is returning to Beckenham next month for a special festive event.   

The Sunday Funday comedy show will take place on Sunday, December 1 at 2.30pm at Beckenham Public Hall on Bromley Road.

BYOB Comedy was conceived by best friends and professional comedians Carly Smallman and Alyssa Kyria just over three years ago.

After new mum Alyssa suffered with post-natal depression following the birth of her daughter, the pair decided to help other local parents by starting a daytime comedy club in the function room above their local pub. The shows were so popular that they now host them at 20 venues across London and the home counties.

Alyssa and Carly said: “As well as being an awesome night out during the day, we also have soft flooring, toys and more for baby and plenty of buggy parking, baby changing and helping hands to ensure that our guests and their babies have a great time.

“Loneliness and depression can affect so many new parents, which is why we have made it our mission to create shows that help parents feel like themselves again, get out of the house, and have a much needed laugh.

“For this special event, we are proud to be teaming up with Me and My Baby, at Mytime Active, The Spa Beckenham. They run a variety of exercise and fitness classes for mums and their babies, meaning there is no need for parents to worry about childcare or finding a babysitter.”
