Double Deckers: Brendon Burns & Craig Quartermaine / Tom Ward
Fifth instalment in the Comedy Box’s 2017 Edinburgh previews series, for which top circuit comics will be giving Bristol audiences an advance look at the shows they’ll be taking up to this year’s Fringe.
Tonight’s lineup is a little different from the rest. As well as a solo set from comic/writer/filmmaker Tom Ward, it features Race Off, a double header from Australian comics Brendon Burns and Craig Quartermaine. Brendon explains the premise thus: “I’m a white Aussie and Craig is indigenous, and it’s the story of how we came to be a double act and just how relevant the division between our communities is to the rest of the modern world. I guess it’s your classic buddy movie dynamic, two blokes just trying to get along with a lot of obstacles in their way.”
8pm/7.15pm, £9. For more info and to book tickets, visit www.thecomedybox.co.uk/site/301.asp?catID=1561&ct=date
