World Premiere

Comedy
2145 - 2245

Fed up with living in a world full of achievement, Bernard, with help from his guitar Susan, decided that he never agreed to reality and failure is beautiful.

Doktor Cocacolamcdonalds

UK Premiere

Comedy
2300 - 2355

The enchantingly peculiar star of BBC’s Comedy Shuffle returns with his myriad of Casios and maybe even a stylophone - you musn’t resist the powers of the Doktor. Contains some nudity. Evening Standard: Destined for cult status Chortle: simply wonderful…full-throttle anarchic brilliance to which most acts can only distantly aspire.
