CIRCUS/DANCE

Alice
Fresh out of a critically-acclaimed run in Cambridge, a highly talented troupe of student dancers and performers bring you a contemporary circus interpretation of the family classic Alice in Wonderland. Meet a break-dancing caterpillar, the Cheshire Cat dangling from a trapeze, and the Mad Hatter's tea party transforming into an even crazier juggling routine. After witnessing such a variety of impressive performances, you will believe that six impossible things can happen before breakfast.

COMEDY

Tiff Stevenson: Seven
Seven deadly sins, lucky number seven, the seven ages of man, dwarfs, wonders, samurai... Tiff's seventh solo show may contain jokes about all of these things, although probably not dwarfs. As seen on Mock the Week, People Just Do Nothing, Stand Up Central and as UK Correspondent on ABC Australia hit The Weekly. 'Heartfelt, important, provocative hour from one of the best in the business' ***** (Sunday Herald). 'Punchy and political but in the best most human sort of way ... A heart-warming quality, even while knifing you in the throat' ***** (Mirror).
