Brighton Fringe Interviews: Tristan Wolfe
As well as writing and directing his own Brighton Fringe show, Nick Myles somehow found the time to grab six of his fellow writers to find out more about their shows. You can find details of all the others here.
Tristan Wolfe’s Break: Out is more than just a comedy show. It’s about the power of breaking through, breaking down, and ultimately, breaking out. Whether you’re queer, questioning, or simply human, these stories from the brink will resonate, inspire, and—hopefully—make you laugh at the absurdity of it all.
Break: Out plays at Laughing Horse @ The Walrus (Tusk Club) on 4, 11, 18, 25 May & 1 Jun. Further information and tickets available here.
