ADAM HESS TIME<br />

a bandage around his stomach & a piece of paper in his pocket with a long number on it “For high quality gags per minute there’s no<br />

better comedian” The Independent<br />

This is not a work in progress, this is no pit-stop. This is everything I’ve got for you Leicester. This is 100% insanity, on top of a bus with<br />

every bit of energy that can be mustered. I believe in miracles. Where you from? You sexy thing. There my hat. There my hat.<br />

ADAM VINCENT: JUDGEMENTAL<br />

Fresh from his sell out run in Edinburgh, comedy writer for Channel Four’s The Last Leg, Adam judges himself & the world with wanton<br />

cynicism but now wonders if this is just his way of avoiding life. Probably. “hilariously irreverent, Vincent is undeniably one of the more talented<br />

comedians I have seen at the Fringe” Broadway Baby. As featured on NBC’s Last Comic Standing. “Had the audience in stitches” Rip it up<br />

ADHAM FISHER: EXTREME COMMUTER<br />

Adham Fisher is not your average commuter. He travels to every station, street and stop on transport networks across the world<br />

in the fastest possible time. Mostly he does it for no reason, but there are some Guinness World Records at stake for this. Really.<br />

Learn about his pointless quests, his bizarre international media attention and never complain about your commute again.<br />

AHIR SHAH - WORK IN PROGRESS<br />

Ahir Shah presents an hour of work-in-progress stand-up ahead of the 2016 Edinburgh Fringe. It’ll probably be about politics,<br />

the information revolution, the future of work, modernity, and postcapitalism, but might be about something quite different so don’t worry if that<br />

doesn’t sound like your bag. Winner: Best Show, Dave’s Leicester Comedy Festival 2014.<br />
