Controversial comedian Jerry Sadowitz's upcoming gig in Margate is no longer happening.

According to a message on the promoter Walnut Whip's website, the show is "Cancelled/Postponed/Ain’t Happening. Sadly, the advertised show on September 17th won’t now be happening for a variety of reasons. We’re still on good terms with Jerry Sadowitz and are hoping to arrange something in the near future."

Sadowitz was due to launch the new comedy club night on September 17 at the Olby's venue. The club now hopes to be launching in December at a different location – the Famous Cliff Bar at Margate Lido.
