“Lighting fast.” – Evening Standard
Dan Antopolski, headline act
‘After adventures elsewhere, I am doing standup again, for love and of course, for money. I am often good at it due to material, performance, face and finally limbs which express sorrow while I smile. These are both real and the effect is really something. As always I am pitting fear against inertia by believing I will do an Edinburgh show in 2023 and so far this is creating NEW STUFF in the familiar way. I like the new stuff, it is different to the old stuff except if you’re not me in which case I guess it is the same. Such is art.’
“Spectacular displays of verbal pyrotechnics … A confident, splendidly silly and sometimes dazzling show.” – Stephanie Merritt, THE OBSERVER
Kate Lucas, support act
Award-winning musical comedian Kate Lucas is known for her razor-sharp and deliciously dark songs. She combines catchy melodies with original lyrics to showcase her playfully bitter musings on life. Audiences have come to expect examples of what not to say and how not to behave from this gloriously talented young comic.
