About This Open Mic
The Night
Comedy open-mic night at The Tudor Arms, a Greene King pub up on Bushey Mill Lane. Run as "Tudor Laughs" by Jest Another Comedy, it lands on a fortnightly Thursday and gives both newer and established stand-ups a friendly room to try out material. Free to watch, walk-up for performers, with a PA and mic on the little stage. Worth checking the venue's socials for the exact start time on the night.
About The Tudor Arms
The Tudor Arms is a Greene King pub in a quiet residential corner of North Watford, built in 1932 with a mock-Tudor frontage, a large beer garden and a children's play area. It hosts plenty of free live music sessions and runs open mic nights through Greene King's Live at Your Local programme, giving new performers a stage, alongside a charity quiz and Friday-night karaoke. A relaxed, family-friendly local with grassroots live music on the bill.
