Sam Lake: Cake & Jen Ives: Peak Trans - Edinburgh Double Preview
Jen Ives: Peak Trans
As the discourse on trans people becomes more toxic in the UK - comedian, trans-woman & nuisance Jen Ives is here to sort it all out, hun. Is JK Rowling The Devil? Can a man love a trans-woman and still truly be straight? And how long can Jen get away with taking maternity leave from work? "Easy-going and gregarious with a touch of self-deprecation that adds to her confidence rather than detracts from it... great company"- Steve Bennett, Chortle.
Sam Lake: Cake
Award Winning stand-up and nice young man Sam Lake presents an hour of hilarious and camp stand-up shaped into a heart-warming love story, talking about his life goals, and how he copes with succeeding and (more often) failing at them.
As well as starring in All4’s ‘The Joy of Missing Out’ & Dave’s ‘The Comedy Guide to Life’, Sam has written for Newsjack & Mock The Week and is the winner of Leicester Square Theatre’s New Comedian of the Year.
