Liza Pulman is a songstress and comedienne. She is also the short one in the acclaimed satirical comedy group Fascinating Aida.

COMEDY

Lloyd Langford: Rascal
A brand spanking new (and free) stand-up comedy show about taking your pleasure where you can find it. Will contain jokes about the weather, gangs and what to do if you find a box of sex toys in your hotel room. As seen on QI (BBC Two) and as heard on The Unbelievable Truth (BBC Radio 4). ‘Just the right level of Welshness’ **** (Mirror). ‘Reaches beyond stock observation to a level of metaphysical enquiry, acquiring the demeanour of a wise fool.’ (Chortle.co.uk).

PUPPETRY

In Our Hands
Alf is a trawler fisherman at the top of his game. But times are changing and so is the industry. Will Alf adapt in order to survive? Follow a fish's journey from sea to plate, watch a seagull's ridiculous attempt to find food and witness a father and son reunite. Award-winning Smoking Apples, co-creators of CELL, use innovative puppetry, a striking set and an original score to transport you out to sea, under the ocean and onto the deck of the Catcher's Fortune. 'An imagination-fuelled cracker of a production' (AYoungerTheatre.com).

THEATRE

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.

CLOWN

Stuff
The first solo show from Cirque Du Soleil clown and acclaimed international performer Sean Kempton. 'Physically brilliant' (Herald Sun). 'I genuinely loved this show' (DailyReview.com.au). Stuff is a highly energetic and entertaining physical piece that takes its audience on a journey through the fragility, hilarity and awkwardness that love can sometimes entail. It's a love story but not the one you've seen a million times before; this is another kind of love story. Using clown, mime and a little bit of dance, Stuff is playful, fun, sad and familiar.

COMEDY

Damian Clark Can't Slow Down
He suuuuure can't. Nominated for a New Barry Award. After his cult smash show Grand Theft Damo last year, the Aussie crackerjack is back with his brand new hurricane hour of stand-up. Don’t miss this firm festival favourite. ‘The world’s wittiest machine gun. Let yourself in on one of the funniest secrets in town’ (Scotsman). ‘Every joke - and I honestly do mean every single joke - is genuinely, gut-bustingly funny’ (ThreeWeeks). ‘Infectious, hilarious and highly recommended’ (Kevin Bridges). Sold-out, Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2011-2015.
