The Show with Matt Leazer is a brand-new late-night talk show from Half-Moon Productions, performed every night with a fresh line-up. Actor-poet-clown-director Matt Leazer and music performer MJ Hughes present a show featuring local artists, musical comedy, sketches and improv. The pair had three options — skydiving, marriage or Scotland — and the Fringe is the result. Each night explores the hilarious and happy accident of living, promising to leave audiences befuddled, bewildered and embezzled. The show runs for 60 minutes at Forest Theatre and is suitable for audiences aged 18 and over.
