TONY LAW: A NOW BEGIN IN AGAIN An ageing so called comedian comes out the other end of the plague of Justinian while time traveling and learns absolutely nothing going into our most recent pandemic. How(sic) is life about? Does anyone else dream in Zelda? Start what again? It was way shitter for way more people than me but that doesn't stop me feeling sorry for myself. Really hadn't handled that well until I harnessed the power of time travel. https://www.mrtonylaw.com/ SOLO SHOW, ALTERNATIVE DATES:

TWO NON BLONDES A podcast you can finally relate to. Much like a low brow, more graphic Womens Hour. Openly addressing the unavoidable issues and experiences that women endure through their teens, 20's, 30's and beyond. Growing up as we go and sharing it all, shamelessly. Expect hideously honest chat, unfiltered language and a lot of love for dungarees, getting your clavs out and Jane McDonald. www.twononblondes.co.uk PODCAST, STORYTELLING DATES:

WEIRDOS PRESENT GARY AND THE CRISP FACTORY Gary Lineker is a small boy growing up in Leicester and dreaming of one day being a footballer. But his humble background means he is unlikely to play for the mighty Leicester City Football Club - until one day he finds a golden potato and takes a magical trip to a fanciful crisp factory. This play is a reworking of a musical show, originally created as a one-man play 6 years ago and now returns to Leicester Comedy Festival online. twitter.com/WeirdosComedy CHARACTER, STORYTELLING DATES:

Impatient Productions present
WOMEN TALKING BOLLOCKS WITH JEN BRISTER, MAUREEN YOUNGER AND ALLYSON JUNE SMITH Jen Brister, Maureen Younger & Allyson June Smith are Women Talking Bollocks. An irreverent magazine show with bracing, anarchic chat from three middleaged, funny women tackling whatever takes their fancy, live from Leicester! Don't expect: chat about makeup, diets, and what the bloody Kardashians are EVENT, PODCAST doing. They don't care. Do expect: cultural, film and TV recommendations, daft tales, problem sorting, and exasperated life ranting. DATES: 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 Time: 16:30 (17:30)
