The Edinburgh Fringe smash-hit arrives at Hull Truck Theatre!
A one-of-a-kind comedy, perfect for fans of The Play That Goes Wrong and Noises Off.
When a traditional production of Oscar Wilde’s classic play gets underway, everything seems to be going perfectly to plan… that is, until the lead actor fails to arrive on cue and an audience member is chosen to star in the show.
You might think you know this chaotic story of love, mistaken identity and double-lives, but you have never seen it like this before. Filled with wicked Wildean wit and bursting with Bunburying, join us for a hilarious and unpredictable twist on the world’s favourite comedy classic.
The smash-hit, critically-acclaimed debut solo show from an agricultural icon, likely to cause delight or distress to anyone who becomes involved with her, or her livestock.
‘Tremendous… Wonderfully batty and unapologetic, a solo debut to cherish’

Everything is awful but that’s okay, argues Tom in his ridiculously entertaining show about family and growing up in a Spanish subterranean cave. A show for siblings who shared a rubbish childhood, shirtless ex-pats, and comedy fans alike.
“He has an eye for the mundanely absurd which is truly unique, with an execution that is joyfully daft.” – Rolling Stone (Top 12 shows of the Edinburgh Fringe)
“Immediately dragging us under with his menacing charm” ★★★★★ Ed Fringe Review
“Lawrinson has turned playful menace into an art form” ★★★★ Scotsman

Sue Ryding is one half of legendary comedy duo LipService. In 2022 her comedy partner Maggie Fox died and Sue was left with a shipping container full of stage props, costumes, wigs, hats, shoes, sheep, you name it. This show looks at all the “stuff” we accumulate, hoard and hate to let go. In this humorous and creative response to grief, Sue struggles to part with a life sized stuffed sheep, a badger onesie, some ruby slippers, a sinking bog, Charlotte Bronte’s knickers and a host of soft toys.
Touring anecdotes are combined with archive footage from LipService shows. We follow the stories of things Sue has already given away, the wicker horse that appeared every night in an improvised panto, the vintage suitcases turned into a sculpture in Stockport, the crazy Chief Exec of the Tall Ships Festival who dresses up as a fish!
Not all the items will be making it back up the loft ladder, so the audience is invited to take something home. Sue is aiming to end up with “the right stuff”, a small selection that captures the essence of LipService Theatre to go into a national theatre collection. Help Sue on her journey of letting go.
You might have seen him on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’, ‘Would I Lie to You’, ‘Have I Got News for You’, ‘The Royal Variety’, ‘QI’, ‘Blankety Blank’, ‘The Last Leg’, and tons more as well.
He’s been called an “overnight success” – Even though he’s been doing this for yonks!
Chris McCausland is hitting the road again with another masterclass in stand-up comedy that has literally been yonks in the making – The last tour was a sell-out, so get your tickets now.
Ever wondered what your teacher was thinking? Let Facebook’s Mrs Smith enlighten you! Mrs Smith was an ordinary teacher in an ordinary school until she went viral on Facebook and accidentally became a stand-up comedian. Her wit and insights into daily school life, politics, socks, swearing, the side effects of a full moon and more inspired the sell-out show Mrs Smith – See Me! which debuted at the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe.
Child 1. “I’ve got 20 subscribers to my YouTube channel.” Child 2. “Yeh, so, my cousin’s got 36 subscribers on Twitch.” Child 3. “My sister got almost 50 views on her dance TikTok.” Mrs Smith shakes her head and walks away. Is that it??? You have no idea, she mutters to herself. No idea at all. Mrs Smith is 10 away from 78,000 followers. Year 6 would be soooooooo annoyed if they knew.
‘Absolutely brilliant night, a gold star for Mrs Smith’
