Don''t miss Alex Redman at Washy Comedy Fest.

▶“Appealingly quirky” Chortle ▶“Alex is a comedic joy” Harriet Dyer

🤣 Peculiar, quirky, off-kilter, eccentric, odd, weird and kooky are all words that critics have used to describe Redman’s comedy. This has left Alex wondering “am I a freak?”. Maybe, or maybe she is just destined for a different world.

🤣 In Sunshine Space Cadet, Redman combs through the eccentricities of life, her sunny disposition, mental illness and the conflict that comes with being an oddball whilst also desperately wanting to be liked.

📅 Thursday 21 May
▶ 7:30pm - 9pm / Ages 18+ / £10
