YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE THEY HAVE EVERYTHING

Tick the Box are proud to present to you a new and exciting comedy show for the laughing horse free festival at the Edinburgh Fringe. 'Placement Crisis' blend stand up comedy and sketches. Written and performed by new comedy talents Christopher Billingham, Dan Doolan, Sam Fletcher and Tom Chettoe, the show presents 4 students staging a show to fill their university work experience quota and passion for laughter.

Our 4 rising students will each bring unique humour into their stand up slots, influences ranging across a variety of stand ups will present a number of amusing outbursts that widen 'Placement Crisis' to appeal to all audiences. The stand up sets will be delivered with both the enthusiasm and distain for life that comes from individuals who need to be funny to make or break their living because; well…this is literally the case. The sketches will introduce a variety of amusing characters and situations derived from the life experiences of the writers. As well as the hilarious story of how they ended up at fringe performing a show instead of being stuck in an office; 'Placement Crisis' will present characters from the imaginations of 4 students on a scriptwriting course at Bournemouth University.

PlacementCrisis3.jpg (20616 bytes)These students need you to see this free show, a show that doesn't exist for the usual reasons. The performers aren't producing 'Placement Crisis' because it might make you laugh, there doing it because it has to make you laugh. Watch these 4 fresh talents showcase different styles of stand up and an array of sketch show characters in order to graduate and not waste your money and theirs on university fees. You have nothing to lose, they have everything to lose. Come and see what amusement that creates.
