 You should always avoid going back for seconds. In dietary circles, it’s proven be linked to widespread obesity. Having ‘another crack’ at something should always be left to professionals, due to the high risks of diminished enjoyment, otherwise known as the ‘it wasn’t nearly as good as the first time’ factor. The negative effects of seconds has proven itself over and over again in many spheres of society, including the nipple piercing industry, the dodgy kebab industry... and the clingy ex-girlfriend industry. However! Here at Coup De Main, we eat risks for breakfast. That’s why for one night only, well, five nights... We’re proud to bring an encore performance of Comedy Fest alumni HEIDI AND ROSE and RHYS MATHEWSON. And we’re slow-dancing the whole night long, Swayze. Charming comediennes HEIDI AND ROSE, captured our hearts in this year's festival with their brilliant show 'A GUIDE TO THE UNCOOL'. Hailed as one of the underground coups of the festival, the girls navigated the tricky world of the en vogue and the passé with a hilarious LOLercoaster ride of slideshows, stunts, silly songs and scroggin... that left the crowd in adoration and stitches. At their first encore performance since the festival, the girls will be joined by this year’s Best Newcomer award-winner, RHYS MATHEWSON, whose show ‘THE BEST $18 YOU’LL EVER SPEND’ delivered maximum laughs for minimum bucks. Which goes to show that comedy, really is recession-proof. Speaking of bang for your buck... These encore performances are ONLY $20! That’s such good value. So good, you’ll expect Suzanne Paul to greet you at the door and throw in a pot of Natural Glow, plus a ladder that is actually 16 ladders all in one. But they won’t. Because HEIDI AND ROSE with BFFL RHYS MATHEWSON, are all you need! To sucker-punch those winter blues. Be there. Seconds never tasted so good. COUP DE MAIN presents...
