Date Location
Lyric Theatre Belfast / The Stand Comedy Club. The whole town gets an unexpected makeover when a stranger arrives on Mammary Lane in this musical comedy by Paul Boyd. Join the good shopkeepers of Little Happening as they plot to get a few things off their chests. Heavily laden with big laughs, catchy songs, and leaky implants, Molly Wobbly's Tit Factory sticks a finely-tuned musical hypodermic firmly into the bosom of today's surgery-obsessed culture. A must see for fans of The Rocky Horror…

Date Location

Rich Hall
Date Location
This tour sees Hall leave his hillbilly companion Otis at home, but you can still expect the usual grumpily disillusioned spontaneity, with politically-aware rants in that cantankerous gravelly voice. Rich's grouchy, dry comedy style has won critical acclaim. Since creating his redneck alter-ego Otis Lee Crenshaw in 1998, Hall has performed to sell-out audiences at the Edinburgh Fringe, throughout the UK and at comedy festivals worldwide.
