Event Information
1982 - caught between mum's prison ship and dad's flying saucer, 11 year old Nicky is looking for escape. Should they sing baritone and become god? Or run away to "Rentaghost", home of freaks and fools? Can a short fat autistic queer ever escape childhood? Through alternative stand-up and musical comedy, Nicky Vere-Compton spins wild, funny and magical coming of age tales.
Plus cabaret and storytelling from fabulous gingerfluid, queerfluencer, piano songstress, Rubynia Reubens.
Rubynia Ruebens has "Fire and passion [...] which she brings on stage and transmits" (Musica 361).
"The fabulously irrepressible Nicky Vere-Compton, a one-person fairground attraction of sumptuous silliness and Rent-a-Ghost realness." (Kyle Wallace, G&B Comedy)
"Nicky is a rare gem of surrealist comedy." (multi award-winning comedian, Stephen Catling)
Age Recommendation: 16+
