Arguably the longest title in the festival + more jokes per minute than most other acts
British comedian Adele Cliff uses her gag-heavy style and penchant for silliness to tackle the topic of lying and why we do it (or does she?). Tackling fact and fiction with a detour into food – all get the Cliff treatment. Jam-packed with jokes, puns, running gags and callbacks.
