Scrooge is not just for Christmas. Gerry tells you his favourite Dickens story- in May.. The Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come are here, all in one mad clown. Gerry brings you his unique joyful and innocent comedy, but with an edge. He plays all the parts - Mr and Mrs Cratchit, Tiny Tim and Scrooge's nephew and his pregnant niece by marriage. Gerry can do it- come and see. Gerry first read the book when he was 10, so this show has been sixty two years coming, and it's worth it. He didn't finish it in time for Christmas last year, but he's here now with a brilliant 2025...

What do a British Chinese woman and an American expat have in common? In Asian American Cultural Confusion, Shuang and Rabiah team up for a hilarious split-bill show that dives into the awkward, surprising, and sometimes absurd realities of life in the UK.

It’s a pun, although some of the characters might be witty and off the wrist. This is the intercourse before the dessert, whoops sorry I mentioned Bex...

Stand-up comic and card-carrying human disaster Martha Casey is still not sure how to be an adult. Her brain is wired like a broken telephone exchange, she likes her murderous cat and 90s sci-fi more than most humans, and her sexuality can best be described by the phrase “Hnng?” Her first solo show delves into the mysteries of life, asking such philosophical quandaries as: when during fisting is it appropriate to do a silly voice?

Should he really have been in the room for another man's medical exam? Why are all the adults in Brighton wearing dungarees at work? Should he really have washed his fingers in lemon juice before that one-night stand? And is cod really inferior to haddock? Some might say that as a ma...
