Dottie is an eager to please 50s style diner server on their first day on the job – where the baby is the customer, and caregivers are along for the ride.

As the server waits on their demanding clientele (imagine babies doing what babies do best – creating adorable chaos!) the server grows increasingly frazzled – and more and more entertaining!

Stimulating for tiny audience members with sensory play served up throughout the show, and hilarious for parents / adults watching  their loved ones take on roles in an unfolding comedy.

Winner of the Best Kids’ Show at the 2024 Leicester Comedy Festival.

After a sell out run at last year’s Fringe, comedian and children's author Olaf Falafel is dishing up another frying pan full of family-friendly comedy.

The comedy show comedians take their kids to is back and even funnier!

Join Olaf Falafel (if that is his real name) for an hour of kid's comedy which will be the stupidest he has ever let trickle from his brain. Expect sausage birds, radioactive bogies and truth-telling cheese. There will definitely be a time-travelling portal to the future, some farts and a live drawalong.

Be there or be a dodecahedron!
