Richard Herring: What Is Love Anyway? @ Soho Theatre
Another first class Edinburgh Fringe show from Richard Herring about his experience with love from his teen years till the present.

Robin Ince: Science Through Happiness @ Stratford Circus Theatre
Having sold out two nights at the Hammersmith Apollo and 15 other major venues around the UK with his Uncaged Monkeys science tour, comedy brainiac Robin Ince brings his new solo science show to Stratford, exploring the "craggy landscape of evolution whilst plumbing the depths of his own murky consciousness".

Music will be provided by Badly Drawn Boy and funds raised from the night go to Friends of the Earth so you can laugh all night and save the planet.
