Line-ups, updates and news for Jokes Newington festival 2010.


When:  4th July 2010

Where: Pangea Project and the Bird Cage, Stoke Newington

How much:
Early Bird £12. General Admission £15.

Why book a ticket to Edinburgh when for one day you can feel like you're there without leaving London? Staged in the new it-suburb for literary and artsy types, no less. The likes of Stewart Lee, Robin Ince, Andrew O'Neill and many more are lined up to perform full-length previews of their upcoming Fringe shows, and one ticket gets you entry into as many performances as you can squeeze in. Shows won't be announced until the day, Camden Crawl-style, so get their early to plan your afternoon of laughs. There'll be yummy food courtesy of a veggie cook-up at Pangea Project and Sunday roasts at the Bird Cage, and plenty of DJs on hand when things get rowdy later on. Happy days!
