Description
Welcome to the camp and chaotic world of multi award-winning comedian Alex Hines. Alex’s stand-up routine goes horribly awry when she receives a call from her future self warning of an impending apocalypse. The threat of demise sends the show spiralling into a surreal theatrical extravaganza. Stand-up, sketch, psychic powers and a villainous umbilical cord, honey… this show has it all. The Edinburgh debut for winner of the 2024 Moosehead Award and 2022 Golden Gibbo Award (Melbourne International Comedy Festival). 2023 Best Theatre Performer, Green Room Award. ‘Flawless, an absolute trash fire’ ***** (TheatrePeople.uk).Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

I was actually sent from the future to see this show. My mind programming couldn’t have prepared me for the erratic genius of Alex Hines! I’m glitching now because I laughed so hard I can no longer complete my mission. Shutting down nooooowwwww…

I watched 30 shows at the Fringe last week and this was in my top 5. A clever, high energy, laugh out loud fever dream. Deserves a sell out run so go see it.

An absolute joy of a show to watch. It’s great to find someone so unique at the fringe, a complete triple threat. Absurdly funny and very talented. This show deserves an audience. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars
