Mark Thomas : Gaffa Tapes (Edfringe Preview / Work in Progress)
Don't miss chance to see the UK's finest political comedian , none other than the legendary Mark Thomas!
Mark Thomas is widely recognized as one of the boldest and the most uncompromising comedians in the last thirty years, who has had no qualms in combining comedy with political activism, his frequent clashes with politicians have helped establish his reputation as a headstrong individual and as a powerful comedian/political activist.
Probably best known for the political stunts as performed on his cult Channel 4 show, The Mark Thomas Comedy Product , cult BBC Radio comedy show The Mary Whitehouse Experience , BBC Radio 4 Manifesto shows and his many award winning touring theatre shows. Mark won 8 awards for performing, 3 for human rights work and 1 he invented for himself.
“Thomas is a terrific performer and raconteur, and he has the gift of making an instant community out of a group of strangers.” – The Guardian
“The show will still leave even the most laissez-faire Thatcherite Tory with food for thought and a reminder as to how deep the scars of that era run.” – The Telegraph
“You’ll leave recommitted to the fight against this appalling authoritarian government, to keep that tradition alive.”
– The Guardian
Ria Lina : (Edfringe Preview / Work in Progress)
The Live at the Apollo star brings her new show to New Cross following her smash hit success 'Riawakening'.
Tackling themes of feminism, womanhood and plain old common sense, Ria always delivers a blistering performance.
“I guarantee you will laugh a lot” **** The Scotsman
Fearless, provocative, and very funny, Ria Lina is the only Filipina comedian in British stand-up and a hugely admired talent in the comedy industry. Her extensive list of credits includes Have I Got News For You?, Mock the Week, Lovestruck High, Richard Hammond’s Brain Reaction, Richard Osman’s House of Games, The Last Leg and Celebrity Mastermind.
