Description
1982 - caught between mum's prison ship and dad's flying saucer, 11 year old Nicky is looking for escape. Should they sing baritone and become god? Or run away to "Rentaghost", home of freaks and fools? Can a short fat autistic queer ever escape childhood? Through alternative standup and musicial comedy, Nicky Vere-Compton spins wild, funny and magical coming of age tales. With guests and flying saucers. "Nicky is a rare gem of surrealist comedy" - multi award-winning comedian, Stephen Catling.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.

Was completely disappointed at the lack of Rentaghost content. It amounted to 1 line. The rest of it was the painful, self-unfairly deprecatory, not at all affirming, look back at their own school bullying that too many autistic stand-ups do.

THIS show kept my attention from start to finish with her fantastic story and amazing voice! THIS is an award worthy show that all should see! I’m so happy to call Nicky my new friend
