Louise Leigh: Octopus (Work In Progress)

Louise Leigh

Genre: Comedy Duration: 60 mins Price: £8 (+ booking fee) Age: 14yrs+

Louise Leigh investigates how much she does (or doesn't) have in common with Octopuses*.

These may include: multitasking, as clever as a dog, a vigilant mother, mate for life (kinda), ability to squeeze through even the tiniest gaps, brain in many parts, delicious (but chewy), ability to completely change appearance, squirting ink from a gland near the anus and popular with the Spanish. Or something.

Things you can expect:
- “a lorry-load of laugh-out-loud stories, observations and metaphors” (**** Chortle).
- She has “the honed ability to extract nuance from wide-reaching well-observed issues that are both unique and very relatable.” (**** Entertainment Focus)
and if you’re really lucky, you might witness her signature move:
- “rubs off onto everybody around her.” (**** Funny Women).

Things you cannot expect: She will not be bringing a live octopus on stage. Nor a dead one.

Mostly it will just be Louise trying to make you laugh for an hour. Doesn’t that sound fun? I think so. Join her, and explore this magnificent beast together (and the octopus).
