Following three sell-out shows, Chloe Petts (Live at the Apollo, Have I Got News for You) returns with a brand-new tour, and she’s delving where she’s never delved before: this is a show about sex.
The problem is that she blushes every time she says that word. Expect routines about Page 3, lad culture, and most importantly, big, fat naturals.

Chemistry returns to the Chemic on Friday 25 July, with another night of poetry and spoken word, not two but THREE brilliant headliners and our amazing open mic. This time round our headliners are gothic polymath Rosie Garland, and former Chemic hosts Mark & Gill Connors, appearing together as a double act.
The events are themed on the elements of the periodic table, so this time it’s element number 20, which is Ca for Calcium. The theme is entirely optional, but we hope you might use it as a creative prompt to come up with some new work to reveal on the night.
“From where We Stand” tells the stories of residents in diverse communities across Wakefield, Halifax and Middlesbrough and was made in collaboration with the University of Leeds as part of a large-scale research project examining community relations, economic deprivation and political disaffection.
The documentary, which is being billed as “a thoughtfully observed… authentic portrait of Northern England post-Brexit”, was created and directed by the award-winning, independent filmmaker Lucy Kaye.
