Event information
Boutique Comedy Club presents 2 work in progress previews of shows heading to this year's Edinburgh Fringe.
George Rigden in 'Spooning with Uri"
As a child, George Rigden (Leicester Mercury Comedian of the year nominee 2017) was friends with Uri Geller for two years. This is the bizarre but true story of that friendship. In the wake of Operation Yewtree and the #MeToo movement, this is a tale that is as relevant as it is profitable (TBC). A true story about friendship, autographs and cutlery. 'Deliciously dark' (BeyondTheJoke.co.uk). 'A fine, wretched persona' (Chortle.co.uk). As heard on BBC Radio 2 and BBC Radio 4. As seen on BBC One, BBC Two and BBC Four.
Joe Wells in "Joe Wells Doesn't Want To Do Political Comedy Any More!"
The news is too horrible to joke about, so Joe's looking for a new shtick. Support for Frankie Boyle, Stephen K Amos and Alexei Sayle. Writer for BBC1's Have I Got News for You. As seen on BBC3's Quickies. 'Some of the most surprising and thought-provoking material coming from any comedian' (Guardian). 'A genuine hidden treasure of the Fringe' **** (Chortle.co.uk). 'Recommended' (Heat).
