A double header of two edinburgh fringe shows by immensely talented alternative comedians, Sam Nicoresti and Andy Barr.  

Sam Nicoresti - Baby Doomer

A glistening new stand-up hour from LSQ Theatre New Comedian Winner Sam Nicoresti about love, insanity, and the hunt for the perfect skirt suit. Best Show Nominee Leicester Comedy Festival 2025.

During a stressful house move, burgeoning trans icon Sam Nicoresti lost their mind. From a care home comedy night to the standing stones of Cornwall, via a cult, a fertility clinic, and a question of love, this is the story of the journey home.

Baby Doomer is the follow-up to the acclaimed Wokeflake. “One of the definitive documents of the trans experience in stand-up.” Chortle.

The Hotly-Anticipated Fourth Debut Hour of Rising Star Andy Barr - 

Rising star Andy Barr has been in the stand-up game for a while but is yet to reach his apex. Now, for his fourth debut hour, television's Andy Barr (London Live news, 2017) goes back to basics with a selection of classic gags, thoughts, poetry, shouting, butter recriminations, coruscating social critique, puns (reader invited to delete in accordance with personal taste).
