CAROLINE MABEY: HAIR OF THE DOG

Thursday 27th June & Saturday 27th July 2019

Caroline Mabey’s husband/boyfriend/partner (whatever!) just quit his accounting job to train as a dog groomer. Time for a life audit. 

A joyously deft cautionary tale about the dangers of following your (or someone else’s) dreams, from one of the silliest people I know. 

As heard on the Self Renovators podcast and Josh Howie’s Losing It on BBC Radio 4. Writer on The News Quiz.


“Hilarious… funny and touching and brilliant” – The Guardian

“No one has made us laugh as much at this fringe” – The Skinny

“Mabey is thoroughly enjoyable company…. The slightly deranged offspring of a menage a trois between Vic Reeves, Harry Hill and Floella Benjamin” – Evening Standard


Michael Legge: The Idiot

'The angriest man in UK comedy is back at the Fringe for another hour of spleen-venting, more misanthropic, bitter and agitated than ever' ★★★★ (Chortle.co.uk). 'Big laughs and ranty surrealism from gripe-happy comic' ★★★★ (List). 'Legge's unstoppable anger should by all rights wear thin over an hour in close proximity, but the passion with which he performs and the honesty with which he presents himself – along with the genuine joy that peppers the piece – combine to form one of the most refreshing and engaging shows of the Fringe' ★★★★★ (BroadwayBaby.com).


Doors open at 4.30pm. We then run from 5:30pm until around 8pm with a 15/20min break between the shows. Entry: £10 on door (that is only £5 per each 1 hour show as these are double previews)– Advance ticket sales are available online, but if you choose to buy on the door, please arrive early to avoid disappointment as spaces are limited and we fill up quickly. We do not have allocated seating so it is first come first served.
