About this Event

Smoke & Mirrors and "A Bunch of Japes" Stand Up Comedy Events are pleased to welcome Touring Comedian Simon Caine to our humble theatre. Having been at Edinburgh in August, Simon will be taking his show on the road and we cant wait to see it.



Tickets are £8.00 each. The Show starts at 8pm. Book away folks!



About the show



His life is a constant search for emotional and electrical outlets. If you can relate, this is the show for you.



This show is Simon's attempt to work out if comedy has improved his life or immeasurably ruined it - I think you can tell which side of that he's leaning towards.



The show doesn't have a narrative. Here's some of the notes from the back of his hand from a preview he did one night: Trump porn, dying alone, Fight Club, Tesco, you've got your hands, penguin dick pics, therapy.





About the performer



I've been performing stand up for over 6 years. I've done over 850 gigs and taken part in 3 Edinburgh Fringe runs. This is my second solo show.
