Wack Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 Its my first time at Summer Sundae and my 12 year old son is mad on comedy, is there an age restriction in the tent and is there an running time available yet? Many Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 As far as I'm aware, there's no age restriction. We've not seen a a timed running order as yet, so I guess it's not available, and probably only will be at the festival. BTW, it's now actually a "cabaret tent" rather than "comedy tent" - so there's more than just comedians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicbaboon Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 As long as you don't mind a little fruity language every now and then you'll be fine. If your son positively LIKES a little fruity language and a little audience participation, go see Jim Smallman and sit near the front! (And sorry to contradict the experts, but there's a running time is up on the E-festivals Cabaret Tent page - click on Attractions on the main website and it'll take you there.)

Ed Leaf Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 Should add that it can be very explicit at any time. I'm not a prude but, it has gotten close to the knuckle in the past. Here all week, try the sole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullcollapse Posted August 1, 2010 Report Share Posted August 1, 2010 See Milton Jones. Very funny, clean, funny. Much better than he seems to come across on tv of late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llcoolphil Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Is it me or is there a lot less comdey this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweepingTheNation Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 There is, but I think it might partly be because the films are going in there at night (the lineup of those is on the official site - Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll on Saturday, No Distance Left To Run and Oil City Confidential Sunday) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magicbaboon Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Just worth mentioning as well that there'll be a night of comedy at the Y during the Thursday Fringe festival if you get here in time for that, which I understand has also been programmed by the Leicester Comedy Festival. Well worth a fiver and for a good cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kerplunk Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Is the Y an actual venue or a nickname for one? I should be down for thursday and I'll buy a wristband though might not get passed The Donkey! It's an actual venue - lovely little theatre with a balcony, built in 1900 - bit like a miniature DMH http://www.leicesterymca.co.uk/y-theatre.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
