2 MUSLIM 2 FURIOUS Tired of being called terrorists, Aisha and Hasan became something worse: comedians. But “2 Muslim 2 Furious” (2M2F) was written before they realised its impact on their US visa applications.

Aisha and Hasan prove that not all British Muslims perform useful jobs, like doctors, nurses or playing for Liverpool. But just try to name a funnier Kazakh-Iraqi double act… we’ll wait!...

It’s a journey to the verge of the abyss and back. I tell the story as it begun - a dorky chubby kid born out of the Cold War era “darkness” of the USSR goes on to witness the rebirth of his homeland through the edgy yet sheepishly silly 90’s to become a double college degree sporting college professor and school teacher who moonlights as a bouncer. As my first night club shift boss used to say “King Kong ain’t got shit on me!” Welcome to the “rocky road” of a Eastern-European youth on his way to “greatness”, silently hoping that the watery cliffs at the harbour will not be the end of the j...

On the surface, Drew Galdron is the UK’s #1 satirical impersonator of former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

Princess Sparkles is a professional princess for hire, appearing at a five-year-old’s birthday party somewhere near you. She’s a little unstable, very available, and just that little bit too much… but more than eager to share the joys of life through a Disney filter. She's a tad flustered and running late though, and it seems that more than just her costume may be coming apart at the seams… Expect a burst of high-energy comedy and intense audience interaction, delivered by an increasingly jaded performer struggling to separate life from work.
