Sexual health charity Terrence Higgins Trust Scotland is teaming up with The Stand Comedy Club, Glasgow to present an evening of riotous repartee and bare-faced cheek on Sunday 4th November at 7.30pm. The evening will run as part of Glasgay! - Glasgow City’s annual celebration of queer culture. Hosted by Stand legend, the irrepressible Susan Calman, the sharp line-up also features the comedic talents of Glasgow’s finest Charlie Ross and Scott Agnew, and a special performance by the cream of Manchester, Jonathan Mayor. Tickets cost £7.00/£5.00 for concessions.
The comedians will be providing the laughs for no fee as all proceeds will go to support Terrence Higgins Trust Scotland.

Services include welfare rights advice, community support for HIV positive people, services for the LGBT community and a HIV testing clinic in Inverness. THT is also a campaigning organisation, with the goal of promoting a better understanding of the impact of HIV.
