With more substance than many comedy shows, Kate is one to watch’' Voice Magazine “Thought provoking & funny… clever, witty & unique” Heart London “A genius approach to breaking down what self reflection truly means and how to laugh in the face of coercion, rules, and fear. A brilliant talent for normalising the absurd” Entertainment Focus “A confident debut’’ Just Celebrity “Zeitgeisty” Dominic King, BBC Radio Kent) “Could snif vodka from the plinth” Helen Lederer The Times & Edinburgh News Best Jokes of The Fringe 2024 Directed by Esther Manito.

Alfred M reviewed Barry Ferns which happened on 8:45pm on Fri 17th Jun 2022.

Barry obviously an intelligent comic good at thinking on his feet. This event declared to be a 'workshop' but I didn't see to what end. Maybe trying out new material but lots of audience interaction which was very friendly but pushed things this way and that.

Alfred M reviewed Paul Merryck: Lies, Alibis & Filthy Stories which happened on 7:30pm on Fri 17th Jun 2022.

Paul seemed a bit rusty after the pandemic layoff but he was a very engaging personality, not fazed at all by the small turnout. Good idea having a guest comic for 10 mins mid-set. I enjoy seeing how different comics operate. Paul seemed to enjoy himself, so did we.
