A Casket Under the Christmas Tree - Early Preview

Door open at 19:30 | In English | Pay what you want | All proceeds to charity

When your little brother commits suicide, it kinda puts a damper on the holidays. In this show, stand-up comedian Belinda Filippelli tells the story of the loss of her brother and how a family deals with grief and shame. She’s shared some snippets of this story on her special, The Heart Mind, C*nt Connection - and the full story is now under production at The BCN Studio, where you can be a part of this dark yet hilarious piece in development.

As this will be the first edition of this show, at the end you will get a chance to share your feedback with Belinda, ask her questions, and contribute to her efforts to develop this raw but unfortunately not unique story of a life lost and a family in shambles, and spread real joy in a season of forced smiles.

Told with love and laughter, Belinda brings her big energy to the stage and manages to be a near-impossible balance of hilarious, kind and badass all simultaneously. She has a serious knack for turning hardship into humour, and her comedy weaves seamlessly through topics ranging from teenage pregnancy and dog ownership to funerals and rejecting Cougarhood.

Belinda has performed in NYC, Tampa, London, Brighton, Prague, Barcelona, Madrid, Berlin, Dubai, Amsterdam, Paris, Brussels, Luxembourg, Zurich and Basel and has opened for big-name comedians like Michelle Wolf, April Macie, Vir Das, and Liz Miele 5+ years, 700+ shows, 9 countries, and more.

This show is Pay What You Want and all proceeds will be donated to a suicide prevention charity of Belinda's choosing. We encourage people to reserve a spot in advance here on our site.
