The Tringe continues with another wonderful night of comedy. The extraordinary Rainer Hersch returns with his 9-piece Orkestra for another night of madcap virtuosos and their unique smashing together of comedy and classical music. And Silky, a very familiar face in Tring after years performing at the Roving Comedy Night since 2011, actually makes his debut on the Tringe stage.
It's a marathon, not a sprint. The Tringe Festival Passport is a famous part of the festival. Enjoy 21 nights with the one ticket.
Rainer Hersch returns to the Tringe with his 9-piece Orkestra of madcap virtuosos and his unique smashing together of stand-up comedy and classical music. Yes, it’s a concert Jim but not as you know it. From Beethoven to James Bond, it’s all here and, whether you are a professor of harmony or couldn’t tell a string quartet from a string vest, you are guaranteed a laugh every four bars.

It's a weird feeling, having your own eyes follow you round the room.
A message from a friend asking if he knows he’s staring out from a pub wall: what if you're art, without your knowledge?
Finding out your self-image is an oil painting, and you’re wearing a ruff, you need answers...
