The Establishment

Back in 1961, Peter Cook established The Establishment: an uncensored, anarchic comedy and cabaret club on Greek St that played host to Lenny Bruce, Frankie Howerd and many more and, arguably, kicked off the satire boom. Now, with the help of master satirist Victor Lewis-Smith, Mike O'Brien (of Laughing Stock Productions) and Keith Allen, the legendary club is back for two late-night gigs at Ronnie Scott's ahead of opening a permanent home for The Establishment in 2013. Allen will MC the gigs, introducing a mix of household names and rising talent, both young and old, all totally unrestricted and uncensored.
