The Unbearable Lightness of the Bright Pink Orchid

The dishwasher in the corner of the office has a sign on it that reads ‘empty, please fill me’ - Cress feels closer to that than anyone else on the ‘team’, - even when they give her a barbie pink orchid as a well-intentioned parting gift. An hour of stand-up comedy with up and coming comedian Cressida Wetton.

“Captivating presence, great response” - The Stand.

Cressida has appeared on BBC Radio 4 Extra and numerous shows at the Edinburgh Fringe including ‘Small Town Fools” – a show about provincial life in Gloucestershire, one of her favourite topics. She is from the West Country, but escaped in 2014 and is now able to joke about meat raffles, recreational drugs and other countryside pursuits at a safe distance. She has a unique slant on small town mentality and her hilarious observations of family life, and the characters she met in her previous office job, will seduce any audience, no matter where they are from.
