Celebrated joke writer and acclaimed stand up comedian Adele Cliff comes to Västerås Comedy Festival, wielding her gag heavy style and penchant for silliness to tackle the topic of lying and why we do it (or does she?)
Best known for her one-liners, Pun Champion Adele Cliff’s new hour skillfully weaves perfectly crafted wordplay into a surprisingly honest show about the consequences of lying, family, loss and the human condition. Adele’s uniquely warm and energetic delivery draws audiences in, while her hilarious storytelling and thoughtful revelations promise huge laughs alongside philosophical insights.
Adele, Adele, Adele… Cliff it isn’t the Consequences of my own Actions is written and performed by Adele Cliff and directed by Jack Carrivick.
