Esther Manito: Hell Hath No Fury
As the title suggests, Hell Hath No Fury sees Esther at her most furious. Furious at the state of the world. At being considered dead at 40. At online comments. And, of course, she’s furiously funny.
Esther examines why, when a woman is angry, she’s labelled ‘hysterical’ or ‘hormonal’, and when a man’s enraged, he’s praised for being ‘passionate’ and ‘opinionated’.
Esther said: ‘I’m so excited to be doing my first tour, especially with a show that I feel so passionate about.’
Esther’s previous show #NotAllMen won Best Show at Leicester Comedy Festival 2021, she has appeared on Live at the Apollo (BBC One), The Stand Up Sketch Show (ITV), Hypothetical (Dave) and The News Quiz (Radio 4).

Shaparak Khorsandi: Scatterbrain
When I finally was diagnosed in my 40s it felt like the lights had been turned on after a lifetime in the dark
Having reassessed her life through the prism of an ADHD diagnosis in last year's funny and moving memoir, one of Britain's most beloved and most scatter-brained stand-ups lets you back into her mind (warning: it's cluttered in there!).
Among other things, this show will be a love-letter to letter-writing, a trip back through Shaparak's early years as a comic and woman-about-town, and a whirlwind tour through her chaotic, hilarious brain.
’She has plenty to say, and says it with pointedness and potency’ Guardian
’Has the crowd in the palm of her hand’ List
’Makes live comedy thrilling’ Evening Standard
‘I laughed all the way through and left inspired’ Funny Women
