Normal for Norfolk 11: Bat Out Of Hellesdon - T01514858179

"And on the day of Judgement, the Gates of Hellesdon shalt open and spew forth two gits. One shalt be spindly and bog eyed and shalt be his name; Faminns. The other shalt be roly-poly and sweat muchly and shalt be his name; Owing Heavens. And armed with puns of misery, agonising gags and painful singing the Twins of Nimmite shall smite the misery-guts populace of Nardge and all shalt be amused. Apart from that cod-eyed fen-gibbon in Row H"-The Gospel According to Boy Luke, Chapter One, Verse Twenty Six, Inside Leg 34. Following a lull which saw Karl Minns finally break the record for killing off more pilots than the Red Baron and Owen Evans descend further into his myrrh addiction, Norwich’s answer to the question; "Who’s the second rate Little and Large tribute act?" return! Many people thought that NFN 10 was the last, many more fervently prayed, even more than that purchased guns tried to make that dream a reality. Unfortunately, Minns and Evans lived and to spite you all, will play their longest residency yet; seventeen arse watering nights of brand new sketches, characters, songs, parodies, poems, monologues, She Go, He Go, and many many less.

Normal for Norfolk 10 - Topless Mardling - T95899675

After last year's 14-night-sell-out, described by Stewart White as 'funnier than a bus-load of Anglia scum going over a cliff on fire', some people asked if the boys could possibly top the diversity, quality and length of humour on show. Well, they probably can't, but it'll be fun watching them try. So, join the thin one and the big one, for a brand new show of city shenanigans, rural rollocks and agricultural arsing about. Delight as they say hare instead of here. Roar like stoats in a vice as Karl wears those tight pink trousers that show off his genitals. And look slightly concerned as Owen sweats like a cheap Korean water feature. As traditional a Christmas treat as murderous rows, Boxing Day diarrhoea and unwanted pregnancies. Running time 90mins

[The Nimmo Twins] return to their home at the Playhouse for a very special Santa season in a brand new show with added tinsel and nuts shoved up its bottom. So stuff the bird and instead join 'Norfolk's greatest comic export' (EDP) for 'the funniest show I have ever seen' (Evening News/NFN6). This festive cracker contains sketches, monologues, songs, special guests, paper hat, some plastic thing and a crap joke for everyone. Owen and Karl, your inbred comedy Santas, have reached deep into Helen McDermott's stocking to give you the greatest present man can give...the gift of laughter (better than socks, but only just).
