Roll up, roll up! Or use a more conventional form of transport to get to the show. It's entirely your choice. Unless you accidentally become trapped in a barrel*.

Should that happen, then just find an incline and start rolling to see the one and only Ross Noble!

He is the Wizard of Waffle, The Rambler Royale, The Noodlers' Noodler, and he's back live on stage to tour a tornado of tangents.

What the show will be about is anybody's guess, but that's all part of the fun when you look inside his Cranium of Curiosities.

*We strongly advise trying not to get trapped in a barrel before or during the performance. Despite the expression "barrel of laughs" it may impede your enjoyment of the show and potentially anger a cooper**.

**barrel maker. We are fairly certain the mascara mishap music maker Alice Cooper would be fine with it.
