RESCHEDULED FROM 23 Sep 2020
Please note that this rearranged 2021 date will now contain the 2019 show ’Tarot’ in the first half and ‘Cautionary Tales’ in the second half: the new show from the same acclaimed writer/performers and the teams behind ‘Gein’s Family Giftshop’ & ‘Goose’.
Berk’s Nest presents
TAROT Chortle’s Top Comedy Show of 2019
The twisted minds of Gein's Family Giftshop ('Brilliant' Reece Shearsmith) and sweaty bodies of Goose ('Brilliant' Guardian) combine to bring you something brand new: Tarot.
In the heart of Edinburgh, a live tarot reading is held. Sketches spin out of the cards and, as the show finishes, the significance of the reading as a whole begins to come into focus.
Come to have your faith restored in a dying art.
Sketch, not Tarot. An interactive, fast-paced sketch show inspired by and based on a love of tarot reading.
What will the cards hold for you? You’ll also see sets from Goose and Gein's
Family Giftshop.
This is to save money on actual tour support and to prepare for their acrimonious breakup (like when your parents buy a duvet that splits into two).
While we take every opportunity to ensure the details for Tarot + Cautionary Tales are accurate, we always advise that you contact the event organiser before setting out for the event to avoid disapointment. All information (whether in text or photographs) is given in good faith but should not be relied upon as being a statement of representation or fact.
