The world's first and only human/cartoon double-act return to the Fringe. Being a grown-up has snuck up on Big Howard, yet Little Howard remains unchanged. How does one tackle the harsh realities of adult life when your co-star wants to close the show on his fart-psychic routine? Perrier-nominated Big Howard and Little Howard have graced stage and screen all over the world, won a Writer's Guild Award and can reverse-park a caravanette. Howard Read is also a stand-up who writes for Horrible Histories and Danger Mouse. 'Incredibly, achingly funny' (Daily Mail).
