Felix is uptight and unlucky in love. He’s the mate of honour at his best friend’s wedding – one they’ve been planning since childhood – and he’s going to make sure it’s absolutely perfect. That is, as long as there are no distractions along the way…
“A Gleeful, Glittery One-Man Rom-Com” The Scotsman
Will Jackson, star of Yours Sincerely (“A Rising Comic Star” Attitude Magazine), returns to Skipton with his new Edinburgh Fringe smash hit. Unashamedly queer, Confetti is a celebration of the gay best friend – often sidelined in traditional rom-coms, Felix is the star of this show, wearing his heart on his sleeve and keeping the party going.
“The perfect 00s rom-com, Richard Curtis can eat his heart out.” ★★★★★ Everything Theatre
It’s Helen’s surprise Hen Night, and you’re all invited! Join Felix for the week leading up to the wedding as he’s swept up in a tumultuous, secret romance, and faces weather disasters and the worries of a bride-to-be. A solo show led with Jackson’s infectious charm, the audience are brought along on the journey, from hen party goody bags on arrival, to call and response affirmations, to exploding party poppers.
