😂 FANCY A MASSIVE LAUGH THIS SUNDAY? GET TICKETS FOR BLOOD SUGAR BABY! ❤️

Sunday nights. The weekend's nearly over, Monday morning is looming, and the thought of the week ahead is beginning to creep in…

But what if you finished your weekend with a proper night of comedy instead?

This Sunday, award-nominated comedian Scott Bennett brings his acclaimed hit show Blood Sugar Baby to The Customs House – and it's one you won't want to miss.

Fresh from Mock the Week, Live at the Apollo, The Royal Variety Performance, and The News Quiz – Scott shares the extraordinary true story of his family's journey following his daughter's diagnosis with the rare condition congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI).

It's a show filled with warmth, honesty, brilliantly observed family comedy and a huge amount of laughter. Heartfelt and hilarious in equal measure, it finds humour and hope in the most unexpected places.

So, give the Sunday-night blues a miss and join us for an evening of outstanding stand-up.
