Make You LOL
19 Aug–21 Aug 2025
The Listies
Aimed at ages 5 - 11
Duration: 60 minutes (approx)
The Listies are rolling into London with their toilet-paper cannons locked and loaded, fresh from conquering their twelfth Edinburgh Fringe.
Gratuitous, ridiculous, joyous, and always hilarious, The Listies are Australia’s maestros of kidult comedy. Rich and Matt are a multi-award-winning comedy duo who jam-pack their shows with a bucket load of theatrical invention to create family entertainment unlike anyone else.
Featuring puppetry, clowning, alien attacks, toilet-paper guns, and the most disgusting pair of pants you have ever seen in your entire life, The Listies are guaranteed to make the whole family LOL, ROFL, and even ROFLSHALBOWCO (that’s Rolling on the Floor Laughing So Hard A Little Bit Of Wee Comes Out).
Age Guidance
Make you LOL is aimed at ages 5-11. It is an hour-long comedy show with language-based jokes aimed at this age group. Younger children may not follow everything and may not stay engaged, and they may also find the experience noisy and overwhelming.
This show has standard theatre seating – rows of benches facing the stage. There will be up to 90 people watching the show.
We welcome vocal response from young audiences, and there are parts in the show where the audience shout things out together, and parts where children can put their hands up to speak individually. There is also a part where children are given soft objects to throw at the stage. There is an opportunity for one child and one adult to come on stage. Otherwise, the audience stay in their seats while watching, but you can leave and re-enter the auditorium at any time.
There is nothing obviously scary or upsetting but very young children might find the show noisy and overwhelming. There are soft objects thrown to and from the stage. At one point a performer says there will be ‘vicious aliens’, but these turn out to be knotted tea towels.
The content and the style of humour is aimed at a school-age audience, so younger children won’t be able to engage in the same way, e.g. with sections based around ‘the world’s oldest video game’ or ‘what to do in the school holidays’.
