Laura Solon

Rabbit Faced Story Soup

Plough Arts Centre, Torrington

Saturday, May 1, 8pm

RISING star in the comedy world, Laura Solon, who made a sensational debut at the 2005 Edinburgh Fringe, returns to North Devon. Solon became only the second woman ever to win the festival's Perrier Award (the first being Jenny Éclair).

She visits the region with her latest show, Rabbit Faced Story Soup featuring tepid-shot publisher Diana Lewis, who is scrambled to find a writer to finish a book and save Black Publishing from crisis. Her obstacles include an American Super Agent, a lightly tanned boss, a call centre worker, a diversity officer, the French and a dead rabbit called Ian.

Tickets: £10 (full), £9 (concessions), £8 (supporters), £35 or £21 (family). Box office: 01805 624624.
