Top mum and baby summer events in London
Bring baby to Lucy Porter: Screaming with Laughter at Balham Comedy Festival
On Thursday 16 July at 1pm, parents with babies under one-year-old can bring baby along to Banana Cabaret’s 2015 Balham Comedy Festival at Balham’s public house The Bedford to see Lucy Porter: Screaming with Laughter. The show, designed for parents with infants, will allow mums to feed and change baby and move around without being made fun of. All the comedians will be performing their normal adult material, so the show is not suitable for older children. To be in with a chance of winning two tickets for two adults and two babies to Lucy Porter: Screaming with Laughter at Balham Comedy Festival, please email your name and address to info@mummyinthecity.com with the subject line ‘Comedy’. (The competition is open to UK residents, and the winner will be selected at random from all entries received by midnight on 27 June 2015. The winner will receive two tickets to Lucy Porter: Screaming with Laughter at Balham Comedy Festival and there is no cash alternative.)
