Having a baby no longer means saying good-bye to enjoying the best live comedy stars from the circuit and TV. Bring Your Own Baby Comedy are teaming up with Symphony Hall to give the mums and dads of the West Midlands the chance toenjoy the best comedians around (and maybe a cheeky drink) – without worrying about childcare!

Their shows are something totally new and different. As well as being an awesome night out during the day, they have soft flooring, toys and more for baby, and plenty of buggy parking, baby changing and helping hands to make everyone’s day out worry-free and even more fun.

BYOB’s mission is to create shows that help parents feel like themselves again, get out of the house, and have a much needed laugh. The idea was conceived by best friends and professional comedians Carly Smallman and Alyssa Kyria. After new mum Alyssa suffered with post-natal depression following the birth of her daughter, these two ladies decided to help other local parents by starting a day-time comedy club in the function room above their local pub.

The shows were so popular that they now host them at venues across the country and are now opening in Birmingham, with local comedian and father of two Chris Purchase as their resident host.
