Get ready for a brand new kid friendly comedy show from Shelf – award winning comedians, children’s authors, writers of The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball, and all around professional goofs.
Expect silly characters, pranks, slapstick, invisible whips, some light voodoo, audience participation (only if you want!), and jokes all crammed into a high energy hour that’s fun for children, their adults, and any ghosts or pigeons that wander in.
Nominated for Best Kids’ Show, 2026 Leicester Comedy Festival / UK Kids’ Comedy Festival. Winners of Best Kids’ Show, 2023 Leicester Comedy Festival / UK Kids’ Comedy Festival.
