Nina Conti Returns To Menier Chocolate Factory For Edinburgh Try-Out
By: Carrie Dunn May. 02, 2012
Following a sold-out run in 2011, the Menier Chocolate Factory is delighted to welcome back groundbreaking ventriloquist Nina Conti, working on brand new material for her new show for 5 performances only, from Tuesday 15th – Saturday 19th May.
Nina introduces her daughter, her handyman, her local laundry proprietor, her oldest friend and a stray dog in a show that refuses to go as rehearsed. Expect a thoughtful mediation on love, life and The Edge of existence. And once you've bought your ticket, let that expectation go.
On her 2010 show:
"Uproariously hilarious" The Scotsman
"I laughed until I couldn't breathe" Melbourne Age
"Put simply, Nina Conti is a genius" Mirror
