Torch Theatre, Milford Haven / Glee Club, Cardiff Bay
Wed 14 Mar / Sun 8 Apr
Fancy something a bit different? How about a comedy show with a twist: following two sell-out runs at Edinburgh Fringe Festival and a sell-out UK tour, George Egg is back on the road with a brand new menu, and he’s visiting these parts twice during the next month-and-a-bit. George’s doctor has told him he needs to revaluate his diet and eating habits, which has led to his family banishing George from the kitchen to the shed. Unfortunately, he can’t resist the urge to cook, so has to get a little creative, finding inventive solutions to make some seriously tasty food.
Demonstrating live cooking in the course of his comedy, this cross-genre show has been described as being “funny, inspiring and absurd in equal measure”. You will see office supplies, power tools and gardening equipment being repurposed and used like never before in order to cook up something good enough to eat right before your eyes. George will show you things you never expected to see and teach you skills you couldn’t even imagine having before! You can even get to try the finished food at the end of the show. This promises to be an experience you have never had before… and probably won’t again.
