Who will conquer the clowns?

Join Alex Redman, self-proclaimed fool, for the much awaited return of The Foolympics – a comedy gameshow that celebrates the fools, freaks and weirdos of this world.

In this show, four foolish comedians compete in the Foolympic games, a set of weird and wonderful challenges to find out 

Who will get the gold in Goofery? 

Who will triumph in titting about?

Who will conquer the clowns?

 

For this extra special show Alex is joined by North East legends, Your Aunt Fanny. The iconic sketch group will be appearing as never seen before - no script, no notes, very little dignity - to compete against each other to determine who is the most foolish Fanny! 

 

Alex Redman is best known for her left-field stand up stylings which are silly, clever and a little bit spicy. The Foolympics offers an alternative comedy night where anything could happen. Fresh off the back of winning the 2025 Audience Award at the Newcastle Fringe Festival, Redman is ready for the return of The Foolympics - a raucous and chaotic night for fools everywhere.

 

While the horrors of this world persist, come and escape into the deliciously daft world of The Foolympic Games.

 

Praise for Alex Redman:

“Appealingly quirky” – Chortle

“A comedic joy” – Harriet Dyer

"Delightfully charming" - The Stand
