The Tringe continues with another wonderful night of comedy. Tringe favourite Reginald D Hunter is joined by the brilliant Spring Day, who makes her debut on our festival 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.
For years, Reginald D Hunter has been misinterpreted as a controversial comedian because of his show titles despite his repeated objections that he is not a controversial comedian. He has penned Fluffy Fluffy Beavers with some hope to rehabilitate his persona by manifesting images of well-coiffed river creatures building dams of chocolate in rivers of candy, whilst continually delivering pressure inducing ideas to form diamonds of laughter.
‘Arguably the most accomplished act in the comedy section of your Fringe brochure’ (Scotsman).
‘Stand-up comedy’s coolest customer’ (Telegraph). ‘Comedy of a rare scope’ ***** (Times).
As seen on BBC's Live at the Apollo, American transplant Spring Day provides dark comedy for nice people. Spring joined a Christian cult at 13 years old and left 13 years later. She's never talked about it before because she didn't think you heathens would understand. Watch her recount why she joined, and how she escaped a growing fundamentalist Christian community that had become her whole world. Expect one hell of a coming-of-age story about finding faith as Spring explores the nature of cults and the role they play in our everyday lives.
