About English Stand-Up Comedy Club
English Stand-Up Comedy Club brings live shows to venues in Lille, hosted by English comedian Neil Sinclair.
Every show presents a fresh and diverse line-up with the biggest names in comedy and local rising stars. You’ll have a chance to see acclaimed performers and discover up-and-coming comics rolling out original material they’ve been practicing in the bathroom mirror. The line-up changes every show, with new voices, sharp jokes, and unique perspectives.
Life between languages and cultures can be exciting, bewildering, frustrating, and downright funny. Through stand-up, we get to share these stories in a humorous light. Once a month, we unglue our faces from our screens and get together as a community of comedy fans and English speakers of all levels for one hour of laughs and a break from the routine.
Our audience is a wonderfully mixed bunch of locals, expats, students, travellers, devoted comedy fans, and complete newcomers. English may be your first, second, or third language and you’ll feel welcome!
Come to stand-up comedy night with a group of friends or show up solo. You’re invited to arrive alone and we encourage mingling before and after shows–you can always lean on the bar if you need a bit of liquid courage to warm the gills.
We value inclusivity and diversity and we’re LGBTQIA+ friendly. We welcome people of different backgrounds and levels of English.

English Stand-Up Comedy Night featuring Paul Taylor and more in Lille
Le Spotlight Comedy Club, 100 Rue Léon Gambetta, Lille, FREnglish stand-up comedy showcase featuring Paul Taylor, Bianca Lala, and Polina de la Noix!
English stand-up comedy night featuring the Franglais-fluent Paul Taylor, a British comedian based in France, known for the Canal+ series What The F*** France and his bilingual stand-up tours. His comedy draws on life between Britain and France, particularly linguistic misunderstandings and cultural mix-ups.
With special guest Bianca Lala, an international stand-up comedian from Romania, known for sharp, self-aware comedy and a relentlessly global stage presence. She has performed in 56 cities across 22 countries. Bianca has opened for Victor Pătrășcan, Zach Mama, Mark Simmons, and Joe Sutherland, and has shared the stage with comics Tatty Macleod, April Macie, Tamer Kattan, Kyla Cobbler, Bianca Cristovao, and Radu Isac.
Joining the line-up is Polina de la Noix, radio host, singer, and Russian-born Renaissance woman who’s recently pivoted her eclectic style and creative talents to stand-up. She’s ballsy and unapologetically herself, with an offbeat perspective and the nerve to bring her weirdest ideas to the stage.
