Award-winning comedian and creator of BBC Radio 4's It Is Rocket Science, Helen Keen returns to Edinburgh with her esoteric mix of stand-up comedy, science fiction and shadow puppetry in a new show that will transport you into the exciting, inventive and tin-foily world of The Future (by at least an hour). 'Quirky, offbeat and original ... clearly someone to watch' (Sunday Times). 'Startlingly fine entertainment ... crisp, sophisticated comedy' (Guardian). 'Embodies all the best things about intellectual comedy. Smart without being elitist, and with just the right amounts of sincerity and sarcasm' (Spoonfed.co.uk).
