“Simple and bizarre punchlines with unerring skill” Edinburgh Festivals Magazine, ***** “Chris Cantrill, with the help of his trusty laptop, performs a surrealist presentation that would have Dali’s moustache twitching with pleasure. A mystical journey into a cheese-filled nightmare, the content and its delivery are straight out of the top drawer.” Whats-on-London
