Comedy
Tues, 7th November – 7pm – Brian Gittins – The Ned Ludd
This is a rare chance to catch one of the country’s leading alternative comics outside of London.
David Earl’s alter ego, Brian Gittins is an utter prat and according to the Sussex Argus, ‘The World’s Worst Comedian’. However, Brian’s not having any of it and he’s back with a live show. This is a comedy joyride with all the bells, whistles and monkey suits that go with it

PLUS Four Far Away will whisk you away to a fantastical world based on your suggestions. Adventure and intrigue, mystery and magic await. It’s all entirely made up on the spot!

Relax & Learn Something New

The August Moon tea studio is a hidden oasis in the city centre and you’ll definitely leave feeling relaxed.

A New Comedy Experience
Sun, 12th November – 8pm – D A N C E – Dance4
We’re not entirely sure what this is but it sounds weird and interesting so we’re on board!
Watch comedians and dancers working together, creating something new. Comedians will do their sets and dancers will improvise around them, and they’ll swap, with comedians trying their hand at busting a move, and dancers finding out what it takes to tell a joke.
An exciting way to see different artforms working together. Hosted by the loveably/ enigmatic/ lover of shirts with animals on it – Daniel Nicholas.
