Bright Club is the comedy gig where university lecturers and researchers try their hand at stand-up for the first time. It started off as an experiment at University College London, and soon spread virally across the country. The concept is to have a bunch of interesting comedians and musicians and combine them with fascinating people working in universities in front of an attractive and intelligent public audience. Whereas most academics will see their work published in leading journals, others will always remember the brilliant stories they could tell in front of their peers. The Manchester Congress provides the first opportunity for the first ever HSTM Bright Club: come along and find out more.

This event is open to Congress attendees at a cost of £2.
