The Time Show is a comedy/theatre/spoken word show that received critical acclaim at the 2019 Edinburgh Fringe and went on to tour the UK to sell-out crowds.

Stuart Laws Is All In poster
0.5

Stuart Laws ('You'll struggle to find a comedian with a better jokes per minute rate... like a one-man episode of Arrested Development' Fest) acclaimed Edinburgh Fringe and tour show Stuart Laws is All In. The show sees Stuart reflect on the day his life changed forever: when he risked everything in a Las Vegas poker tournament. Is he a winner or a loser? Can he burn the candle at both ends? And has he been infected by the Willennium Bug? A show about making difficult decisions, choosing different paths and gettin' jiggy wit' it from the leftfield observationalist and intricate gag-weaver. “A deliriously fun and nonsensical hour full of tiny little treats, Stuart Laws Is All In defiantly stands proud as a show not to be taken seriously in any way, shape or form.” ★★★★ The List

Stuart Laws Has to Be Joking? poster
NR

Last year Stuart started telling the truth on stage and was diagnosed autistic: he got the best reviews he’s ever got and his show was a must-see. He's back baby! And has to lean into it further. It’s funny, it’s real, it’s immaculately structured and it’s a chance to see a comedian at the top of his game.

Kiri Pritchard-McLean: Hysterical Woman poster

Tackling genetics, gender and being a comedian who happens to be a woman, Kiri handles a host of thorny issues with a down to earth sense of her own ridiculousness. Settle down for an hour of whip smart stand-up with an angle on anthropology that's as funny as it is clever.

Jen Brister: The Optimist poster
2.5

If middle age has taught Jen Brister anything, it’s that optimism does not come naturally to her. In fact it’s fair to say that her cup is very much half empty and she’s making no attempt to fill it. Can Jen work against her natural instincts and finally see the light? Or will she stay the same old pessimistic naysayer she’s always been. I mean, I think we know the answer to that, but let’s try and be optimistic.
