Comedy, Families, Variety

Showing on Thursday 15th Feb

“The disability ‘Taskmaster’!” A hilarious game show where each game represents a different disability, giving kids and grown ups the chance to learn about Autism and Cerebral Palsy among others. Host Benny Shakes invites the audience to help join in the games, while resident panellist Mark Nicholas and a guest comedian battle it out to come up trumps, in a show where disadvantage is an advantage!

Developed with support from New Art Exchange Nottingham, Arts Council England and Attenborough Arts Centre and fresh from an Edinburgh Fringe run at the Pleasance 2022.

Shortlisted for the Neurodiverse Representation Award & 2nd in Best Show category at the Midlands Comedy Awards 2022 & featured in Lyn Gardner’s VAULT Festival 2023 Top Picks.

★★★★★ – “Extremely inclusive” – A Young(ish) Perspective
★★★★★- “Lots of fun” – Mix Up Theatre
★★★★ “Far more thoughtful and enriching that 60 minutes of mindless games, and also more fun and physically engaging than an hour of learning would usually be” – All That Dazzles
★★★★ “Cleverly thought out and engagingly interactive.” – ThreeWeeks Edinburgh

This performance is BSL interpreted.
