From comedian Micky Overman comes a brand new show that’s got it all: Patrick Swayze!… Other stuff! It answers some burning questions like: “how did one find a wife in ancient Babylon?” and reveals how a minor medical issue led to a possible encounter with a witch. Originally from the Netherlands, Micky’s outsider perspective, quick wit, silly delivery and spot-on observations make her one Britain’s most exciting female voices.

It’s time for a little get together; so pull up a chair, get all cosy and let Lou Sanders (aka Dr Giggles) tell you about the time she gave this horse a boner. She’ll bring her skates, you bring your wallet and you can all take some piccies. Perhaps this show is the real vaccine?
Consistently a critic’s and audience favourite, Lou’s previous celebrated show Say Hello To Your New Step Mummy was selected as a top show to see in The Times, The Sunday Times, The Guardian, The I Newspaper, The Evening Standard, The Mirror, Time Out, and Joe.co.uk. It played to sold-out audiences every day of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2019, with extra dates added to meet overwhelming demand for tickets, as well as across the UK with a sold-out run at London’s Soho Theatre. On TV, Lou is the co-host of Dave’s Unforgivable which was recently crowned Best Entertainment Programme at the Broadcast Digital Awards 2021, while she has featured on The Late Late Show with James Corden (CBS) & starred in the Emmy nominated and BAFTA winning comedy game show Taskmaster (Dave).

Event Details
Boogaloo Stu’s 70s throwback comedy character Derek Daniels invites you to play a game of Bingo – but not as you know it! Watch the sparks fly as polyester and crimplene are set to collide; the crimplene king Derek Daniels and the polyester queen Lorraine Bowen join forces for this sensationally silly and slightly Shakespearean game of musical bingo – its Much Ado About Bingo!
Listen carefully as Derek sings a medley of classic 70s tunes, whilst casually dropping Shakespearean quotes into a reminiscence of his first date with his long-suffering wife Bev. Grab your bingo card and tick off the songs and quotes as you hear them, in a frantic bid to win the Full House and claim your gift from the 70s gift hamper. Derek will also be joined onstage by his old showbiz sidekick Ronnie Hazelnut at the piano, and his very special guest Lorraine Bowen. The delightfully eccentric “Crumble Lady” from Britain’s Got Talent, Lorraine won David Walliams’ Golden Buzzer on the show with her catchy melodies, Casiotone organ and love of polyester gowns. A perfect match for Derek!

Event Details
Event Details
“We all know that to be a true infiltrator into patriarchy, one must find costumes, disguises and secret doors with which to enter enemy territory, in order to dismantle it.” – Susan L. Abert
Enchantress weaves words of inner resilience, recovery and revolution in a striking visual anthology. Strange, poetic and acerbically silly, Jeu Jeu la Foille’s Testy Manifesto combines linguistic acrobatics with evocative images, puppetry, and sensory experiences to delve deep into the mechanisms of intimate partner violence.
This ‘difficult’ second album is the follow-up to ‘Jeu Jeu la Foille’s Frontal Lobotomy’, which dealt with experimental brain surgery, while heavily under the influence of Tom Waits.
Jeu Jeu la Foille is a poet, clown and burlesque maverick who likes beautiful melodies telling her terrible things.
