South African-born Manxman Pierre Novellie is anything but quiet when it comes to emergency trousers, the apocalypse, anatomically-correct Halloween costumes, and Christmas Day with The Queen. “Quiet Ones” was recorded in September 2021 at the Pleasance Theatre in London.
Treyvon has everything, well almost everything. He's got the fast car, good city job, model looks - even a good sense of humor, and yep - a body to die for. The only thing missing is that one special somebody. Ever since he embarrassed a young woman who asked him for a date, his love life has been cursed. Now, over 15 years later, he is trying to break the spell.

Je m'appelle Paul, je suis Anglais et j'habite en France. J'ai fait un premier spectacle de stand-up intitulé "#Franglais" which was half in English and half in French. It went pretty well, so I've decided to do another show called "So British (ou presque)". It's the same concept. A show that is in both languages but with brand new jokes and stories that you've never seen before. Et si tu te poses la question: "Est-ce que je vais comprendre son anglais?", j'ai une astuce: si t'as compris cette description, c'est bon. Sinon, j'ai un pote qui peut t'aider à préparer le TOEIC. Si tu ne sais pas ce que c'est le TOEIC, là, je peux vraiment pas t'aider. If your French is good enough to understand this description, you'll bee laughing. See you on stage!

Offbeat, quirky and often delivered at breakneck speed, take a leap into the unknown with Paul F Taylor's blend of daft character comedy, animal impersonations, and surreal story-telling. Expertly keeping the Comedy Police at bay, (but falling foul of that pesky Gorilla) this mad-cap, curly haired comic executes his material with both admirable skill and silliness.

Stuart Laws ('You'll struggle to find a comedian with a better jokes per minute rate... like a one-man episode of Arrested Development' Fest) acclaimed Edinburgh Fringe and tour show Stuart Laws is All In. The show sees Stuart reflect on the day his life changed forever: when he risked everything in a Las Vegas poker tournament. Is he a winner or a loser? Can he burn the candle at both ends? And has he been infected by the Willennium Bug? A show about making difficult decisions, choosing different paths and gettin' jiggy wit' it from the leftfield observationalist and intricate gag-weaver. “A deliriously fun and nonsensical hour full of tiny little treats, Stuart Laws Is All In defiantly stands proud as a show not to be taken seriously in any way, shape or form.” ★★★★ The List

What if you could talk to animals and have them talk back to you? Anna Breytenbach has dedicated her life to what she calls interspecies communication. She sends detailed messages to animals through pictures and thoughts. She then receives messages of remarkable clarity back from the animals. Anna can feel the scars hidden under a monkeys fur, she can understand the detailed story that is causing a birds trauma, she transforms a deadly snarling leopard into a relaxed content cat – the whole animal kingdom comes alive in a way never seen before – wild birds land on her shoulders, fish gather around her when she swims, and wild unfamiliar baboons lie on her body as if she is one of their own. This is the first full length documentary film on the art of animal communication.

In the wake of one of the worst social experiments in the history of mankind, 'I'm not Black, I'm Coloured' is one of the first documentary films to look at the legacy of Apartheid from the viewpoint of the Cape Coloured. A people who in 1994, embraced the concept of Desmond Tutu's all encompassing 'rainbow nation', but soon thereafter realized that freedom, privilege, economic growth and equality would not include them. A people who for more than 350 years has been disregarded, ignored, belittled, and stripped of anything they can call their own enduring a complex psychological oppression and identity crisis unparalleled in South African history.

Jan Smuts is a foremost political figure in South African 20th Century History, and is recognised today by two of the world's leading historians as being at the very centre of the vision for a new world order that emerges from the League of Nations and the United Nations.. Yet, he is virtually persona non grata in his own country.... and largely ignored in school history books. This one hour drama-documentary, with its dramatised cameo scenes in which his look-alike grandson takes on the role of Jan Smuts, battle re-enactments, historical archival footage, comments from historians, political analysts, and South African political struggle heroes, looks back on his life and the circumstances that shaped it in search of some answers.
