PizzaExpress Jazz Club (Soho)

Inspired by Dizzy Gillespie's 1964 run for President, comedian and self-confessed jazz anorak Marcus Brigstocke invites the nation’s greatest jazz-loving comedians, musicians and presenters to assemble their very own Cabinet of Jazz in this unique comedy series exclusively for Jazz FM. When Dizzy Gillespie ran for president, he wanted Duke Ellington as Secretary of State, Charles Mingus as Secretary of Peace and Miles Davis as Director of the CIA. Who will Marcus’ guests choose? Find out at PizzaExpress Live and be part of the audience as we record a ground-breaking new comedy series for transmission later in the year on the UK’s Jazz FM.

  • 17th October: Clarke Peter + YolanDa Brown

  • 1st November: Julian Joseph + Claire Martin

  • 8th November: Gary Crosby + Dennis Bovell

Enjoy musical accompaniment with your meal, followed by Marcus Brigstocke in conversation with two special guests. There will be a short interval of around 15 minutes between each guest.

Please note that as the show is being recorded for broadcast, no food will be served during the interviews. All food must be ordered and served before the show starts at 7.30pm, or else during the interval and after the show has finished.
