Saturday Night Live From The Stand (Saturday 21st March at 8:30pm)
The show will be filmed and live streamed from the Edinburgh club with stand-up from Mark Nelson , Vladimir McTavish, Ryan Cullen, Jo Caulfield and Phill Jupitus.
Whilst there won’t be an audience in the venue for obvious safety reasons, they hope to bring some much-needed laughter to all those people who can’t go and see live comedy in a club setting.
A Stand spokesperson said: “The stream will be available on desktop, mobile and tablet. There will be a function where people can comment live to provide that back and forth banter that is common in the comedy world.
“The live stream is FREE to watch. There is an optional donate button for anyone willing and able to help us generate some revenue to help us through this difficult time. If you can’t donate, then it would be great if you could share the link, so we reach and cheer up as many people as possible.
“In addition to the Donation Link we are also encouraging people to purchase Gift Vouchers, Memberships and tickets for future shows across all three venues.
We intend to lighten the mood of the country whilst securing the future for our staff and acts and to ensure our loyal customers have venues to come back to once the situation improves.
“Big thanks to our Glasgow based web company Parachute for quickly building our live page for the streaming and donation page.”
