Laugh or the Polar Bear Gets It
"A very, very funny evening." The words of just one comedy fan at London's famous HMV Hammersmith Apollo. Their comment came after Friends of the Earth took control for one night only, with sold-out comedy and music fest, Laugh or the Polar Bear Gets It.
8 comedians and 1 musician took to the stage on the 18 November 2011 and kept the packed-out theatre entertained for more than 3 hours.
Compered by the irrepressible Greg Davies, the audience was treated to a full-on evening of entertainment. Stars included Tim Minchin, Josie Long, Badly Drawn Boy and Richard Herring. There was even a special pre-recorded message from Razorlight frontman and Friends of the Earth supporter, Johnny Borrell.
