RACHEL PARRIS is back by popular demand; her hilariously entertaining set last year was one of the highlights of the season. She wowed (and even wooed) the audience with her clever and extremely funny improvised songs, accompanying herself on piano as we all fell in love with her - this is a show not to be missed.

Rachel is a versatile comedy performer with a wide variety of experience, including sketch shows, farce plays, burlesque, comedy song and long and short-form improv. Among the many strings to her bow she has performed as an actor in theatre and film; as a musician playing jazz piano (percussion with the Foals at Glastonbury) and as a comedian performing her wonderful comedy music set with successful stints Nationwide and at the Edinburgh Fringe.  She lives in Blackheath with three singers and a chameleon.

DANNY PENSIVE is the duffel-coated simple soul from Sunderland. For reasons unexplained, Pensive simply jumped on a bus and started travelling around Britain; hence his Map Of Britain Show got under way after a very and successful run in Edinburgh.

Brimming with childlike curiosity and off-beat insights – not to mention a song or two, Pensive is an endearing character, easy to warm to and a joy to watch.
