SAHAR MIRHADI: DAWN OF THE GEEK

Dawn of the Geek is a story of self acceptance, of passion meeting obsession, and of stereotypes dancing in a dazzling Anglo-Iranian beat. We learn how she dealt with the recurrence of being shunned for Nintendo, left for wrestling and lied to by Walt Disney. Expect treats and lots of love in this tale of discovery.

“Now this is someone whom I am confident we are going to be seeing a lot more of… Very engaging…will end up either a newspaper columnist or a TV show panellist or both” – Martin Mullaney, Comedy CV and Cheeky Monkey Club

OFF THE CUFF: PRIMETIME

Infusing TV familiarity with the buzz of live, spontaneous comedy, Off the Cuff: Primetime brings an hour of
entertainment that neatly solves a conundrum as old as the gogglebox itself: whether to veg in front of the telly or do
yourself a favour and get out more.

This hour of programming promises a snappy sketch show, up-to-the-minute news
bulletins and an episode of the improvised TV detective series Crime and Funishment – an impromptu take on
everyone’s favourite not-so-guilty pleasure, the classic TV “whodunit?”

“Fast thinking and skilful…entertainment to make you feel a part of one big, strange family” MadeInCamden.net
“The applause threatened to bring the roof down” 4.5/5 Fringe Guru
“Hilarious, intelligently delivered and well put together.” 5/5 Latest 7

Tickets £9/£7.50 available https://cam.tickets.red61.com/performances.php?eventId=3113:812

Performed 18th-22nd August at 6.30pm

ALEXIS WIERONIEY: AN AMERICAN’S GUIDE TO BEING LIKE, TOTALLY BRITISH

After sold out performances in Adelaide and a “sold-out” run on the Free Fringe in Edinburgh, Alexis Wieroniey (Comedy Knights New Comedian Finalist 2014) presents her solo stand-up comedy show about accidentally moving to England and learning to be British. It’s perfect for ex-pats, nationalists, and everyone in between.
