Description

Come and see three comedians who live with varying disabilities be dead funny on the dancefloor and on stage. We don't guarantee the best dance moves but we guarantee you plenty of laughs. This is an hour-long compilation show with experienced stand-up comedians Mark Cooper, Yvonne Hughes and Eliott Simpson, who strive against the odds each day but manage to have fun along the way. Mark Cooper: 'Brilliant comedy' (Des McLean). Yvonne Hughes has 'frequent punchlines' (The Stand Comedy Club.) Elliott Simpson: As seen on BBC Scotland – 'Neurodiverse performers smashing it!' (NeurodiverseReview.co.uk).

I’m a wheelchair user so it was great to have an accessible venue. Perhaps move the Piano away from the disabled loo.

The acts were all brilliant, the joke about podiatry was my favourite fringe joke closely followed by the speaking clock. Very diverse but also relatable and very funny.
