Double preview: Emma Holland and Tom Cashman

Stars of Taskmaster Australia are heading to Manchester for a special double work in progress show before heading up to the Edinburgh Fringe. Don't miss it! Tom Cashman: NCP (Nearly Proficient Comedian) Tom Cashman is back in the UK with a new hour of stand-up that promises to creep ever so close to proficiency. You may know Tom from Taskmaster or TikTok or from his show descriptions which usually end very abru-  **** 'A fast-paced, sharp, hilarious hour... like a good fever dream' The Age  'Tom Cashman is one of the most delightfully watchable comics I have seen' The Scotsman **** Broadway World Emma Holland: The Dog Dies at the Start  I told my manager I wanted to write a show about dead dogs, and she said 'oh god' but that's not really my problem, it's her job to market it. This show isn't sad, you will leave feeling good. I promise. Thinking about asking my vet for a refund on the euthanasia just to see what happens. **** 'Holland is an act in absolute mastery of her craft' The Scotsman**** 'A whirlwind of comedy, chaos, and charm' ThreeWeeks
