Edinburgh Comedy Preview: Becky Umbers and Eli Matthewson at Norden Farm Centre for the Arts

Two hilarious comedians preview their latest work ahead of
the Edinburgh Festival.

Becky Umbers – Tell That Horse To Keep His Mouth Shut is a
fun, silly comedy show that aims to question, understand — but mostly entertain
— at a time when reality itself sounds made up.

If you’re hoping for definitive proof the moon landing was
fake, this is not the show for you. But if you’ve ever argued with someone
whose theory makes no sense and thought ’How did we get here? — welcome.

Eli Matthewson is the first ever New Zealander to move to
London and he has done it right on time for the end of the world. Just as life
was starting to feel safe and secure, he has thrown it all away and scraped
into the UK on the last possible week he could qualify for the youth mobility
visa. A show about doing everything you can to make something of yourself
before society completely crumbles.
