Dirty Mimes @ Highgate Society
Tickets
Jul 24 @ 8:00 pm – 9:15 pm

If you like your cabaret down and dirty – Las Vegas style – then this is for you. Featuring artists from Cirque du Soleil and the crème of world cabaret, Dirty Mimes is a show without boundaries, without control. They’re here to get into trouble and they want you to join in. There might be some Mime. It might be rude. There’ll be lots of anarchy. But it’s as funny as hell.

George Egg: Anarchist Cook @ Jacksons Lane
Tickets
Jul 20 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

If you like food, you’ll love this…

Internationally acclaimed comedian George Egg is also a rather fanatical self-taught cook with a somewhat anarchic approach to making meals. As obsessed with culinary matters as he is with comedic ones, and finding himself dissatisfied with the quality and cost of takeaways and room-service meals while touring the stand-up comedy clubs of the world, George embarks on a project to take matters into his own surprisingly capable hands.

A surreal and absurd mix of stand-up comedy and striking innovation – in the words of Jay Rayner – “You’ll never look at a Corby trouser press in the same way again”

 

“It’s an hilarious show, with surprisingly good food.” The Times

“It is refreshing to encounter a performer who really is unique.” The Telegraph

“Absolutely glorious.” The Scotsman
