Jordan Brookes headlines the Secret Comedy Club

Jordan Brookes is headlining The Secret Comedy Club at Artista on 4 July 2026. It’s a chance to see the comedian in an intimate setting, with the show running from 20:00 to 22:30. The night is supported by a full line-up, with Aideen McQueen acting as MC, alongside performances from Robert White and Thor Stenhaug.

Jordan Brookes brings a significant track record to the stage. He is a comedian, actor, and writer who gained widespread recognition in 2019 when he won the Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Comedy Show for his piece I’ve Got Nothing. His work has also been recognised with a nomination for the same award in 2017 and a win at the 2018 Chortle Comedian’s Comedian Award. Critics have described his style in various ways: The Guardian noted his work as "digressive, deeply unsettling and very funny," while The Skinny highlighted his "impressively brutal and self-lacerating physical comedy." The List has previously characterised his performance style as "majestic and challenging."

The venue, Artista, is located at 42 Brighton Square, Brighton, BN1 4HD. It is known as a small comedy club that holds the 'Audience Choice Award for Best Fringe Venue'. The club operates on a specific schedule, running shows on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. To maintain the focus on the performers, the venue enforces a strict 'no-heckling' policy, which is intended to keep the environment friendly for both the audience and the acts on stage.

Tickets for the evening start from £11.00. As this is a comedy club environment, the event is aimed at an adult audience. It’s a straightforward setup for a night of live comedy in the city, with the doors opening and the show proceeding through the scheduled acts until the 22:30 finish.
