1 Given Head

1 Given Head

Tim Dingle is an extraordinarily clever man. He’ll tell you this himself, of course, but it does also shine through in his set, which is also on as Giving Head in the evenings. An IQ in the 170s puts him comfortably in genius territory, while his scientific patter proves the booksmarts haven’t faded despite the several years since he was headmaster of a prestigious school... 

Scott Bennett: About a Roy (Stories About Me Dad)

Scott Bennett: About a Roy (Stories About Me Dad)

Franks and Skinner Present: Myself and Myself

Franks and Skinner Present: Myself and Myself

Dan Nicholas: Reverb (The Love Story of Terrance the Crocodile and Julia the Mannequin)

Dan Nicholas: Reverb (The Love Story of Terrance the Crocodile and Julia the Mannequin)

It's your classic love story, really: inflatable crocodile meets mannequin head, they fall for each other but soon enough cracks show and they fall apart. Okay, perhaps it's no Gone with the Wind, but Dan Nicholas pulls off the risky venture of a backwards love story pretty damn well...

Charlie and the Philosorappers

Charlie and the Philosorappers

If someone had told me months ago that, not only was I going to see a man perform rap battles, beat poetry and strange silent skits based on philosophy, but that I was actually going to absolutely love it - I think I would only have laughed half as hard as I did during the performance of Charlie and the Philosorappers... 

Steve Bugeja: Day Release

Steve Bugeja: Day Release

The title of Steve Budeja’s show is misleading. Budeja himself isn’t the one who has been given a short reprieve from serving at Her Majesty’s pleasure; rather, it is the father of his best friend, Amy, who has been given a day release from his sentence to attend his daughter’s wedding...

Adventures of the Singing Acupuncturist: Big O Finds Her Soul

Adventures of the Singing Acupuncturist: Big O Finds Her Soul

Thankfully, there was no combination of singing and acupuncture. And that’s where the relief ended as far as Adventures of the Singing Acupuncturist was concerned.

Dr Professor Neal Portenza Performs His Own Autopsy Live On Stage. One Night Only. (Obviously).

To tell the truth, I’m a little bit scared of Dr. Professor Neal Portenza. This isn’t as strange as you might think, because his show is not ‘a quiet night of stand-up’, as he tells us (yells at us) at the start, but an ‘interactive experience...
