After a sell-out debut hour Rosie "triple threat" Jones returns to the Fringe with a big question: am I backwards, or are they? She explores the hilarious difficulties of navigating the world whilst being the only disabled, gay, northern comedian with quite the penchant for sexual aggression. Rosie's second hour is certain to be a hit. 'Smart, mischievous, laugh-out-loud funny' (Chortle.co.uk). 'Genuinely masterful' (Skinny).
