Waffle Club supports real human creativity ✨

Thanks to (waffle alumni and also my IRL sister) for hand drawing this dumb trend for me.

Waffle Club is still on hiatus but hopefully this post reminds you that we exist! And we will continue to be a space that celebrates scrappy, unpolished human weirdness over generic AI slop.

Keep on wafflin’ x

That’s a wrap! 🫡

Waffle Club series one is DONE. Here are the juiciest stats and tidbits from two years of running my silly little powerpoint comedy night at in Bristol.

I’ve got a baby to look after and a full time job to maintain so there’s gonna be a bit of a hiatus before season two kicks off. But I’ve already got a long list of ideas to make our next shows bigger, better, and more powerpoint-y than ever. We’ll be back waffling before you know it.

Stay tuned and please DM me if you’re interested in performing when we come back!

A Waffle Club Christmas! 🎄

What a fun way to round out the year! We learned the origin of the mall Santa, how to talk to your bigoted uncle at dinner, why puppets make everything better, and much more. There was even a harp!

Thanks to everyone who performed and to our first ever sell out crowd at ! I’ve never had to put extra seats out before!

What better way to kill that momentum than to declare this is the end of Waffle Club series one. I’ll be back for series two at some point but nothing’s booked just yet - keep following this account for updates!

Merry Christmas to all and keep on waffling!

Introducing ➡️

So excited to announce that will be headlining the final powerpoint party on Dec 8 at !

Scarlett Smith is a brilliant musician who has recently turned her hand to harp-based comedy (you read that right). She’ll be treating us to a hilarious musical presentation to round out this Waffle Club festive special. 🎄

You’ll also see 7 other weird, wonderful, and WTF presentations on everything from mall santas to christmas dinner etiquette to puppets. It’s gonna be a fun one folks!

Tickets available from the wardrobe theatre website!

One final thing… why is there no harp emoji?! 👼

It’s Chriiiistmaaas!! ✨

Bristol’s only open mic powerpoint party returns this December for the last show of its two-year run!

I’m super excited to reveal the lineup, which includes repeat guests, first-time wafflers, and an actual factual HARP! It doesn’t get more festive than that, folks.

They’ll be giving comedy presentations about everything from Christmas dinner etiquette to mall santas to the Muppets.

We had two dozen people ask to take part so apologies to anyone who missed out this time - we’ll get to you all eventually!

Also: Waffle Club is taking a hiatus for a bit after this one, so this is your last known chance to see our hilarious performers and their nonsense powerpoint presentations. Don’t miss it.

GUILTY PLEASURES ✅

What a show we had last weekend! Our Guilty Pleasures theme turned out to be a full-on guilt-free treat.

We learned why Jesus was definitely a drag queen, how to tell the difference between a Noel Edmonds’ shirt and a Wetherspoon carpet, what Mormons mean by “soaking” (google at your peril), and saw headliner Charlotte McEvoy defend her terrible belief that the 2019 Cats film is actually good. And loads more as our 8 performers all smashed it at a high-energy show with our biggest audience to date.

We also had a spicy audience Q&A in which we learned a little too much about our candid audience’s guilty pleasures. (I’ll never listen to Nickelback the same way again.)

Huge thanks to our performers:

See you at the next one! Our Christmas special is coming December 8th to . Tickets in bio.

LIFE: SOLVED ✅

To date Waffle Club has solved over 50 of the most important issues facing humanity today. Here are just a few subjects our esteemed powerpoint comedians have tackled at previous shows.

COMING SEPTEMBER 8TH!

🧇 Join host Tom Rolfe and friends for an unpredictable and heart-warming night of amateur comedy, true stories and bad powerpoint presentations at WAFFLE CLUB.

😳 Prepare to have your preconceptions flipped as we turn GUILTY PLEASURES into proud passions. Join us as 8 hilarious performers spill the tea on our latest theme, talk taboos, and answer life’s great mysteries.

🎙️ Our headliner is a q***r comedian and ex-theatre kid who turned to stand up when the acting dream was on its last legs. Much like her, her guilty pleasure is all about redemption, rebirth and running around in rubbish.

👉 Tickets available now from thewardrobetheatre.com, tommyswaffleclub.com, or the link in my bio.
