NFF Comedy

Running time: 125 mins

Nottingham Film Festival is bringing together the magic of Short Films and the pure chaos of Stand-up comedy for one night only.

Join us for an evening of brilliant comedy from some up-and-coming phenoms of the midlands stand-up circuit, including our MC for the evening Jack King. Jack will not only introduce you to some great comics but will also present 4 fantastic comedy shorts from this year's Nottingham Film Festival selection.

These short comedies range from horny truckers, to inept hit men, this event is strictly 18+ and will be unlike any stand-up night in the Midlands.

Live from the Arc Cinema join us for Shorts and Stand-up for the first time ever (and maybe the last time).
