Tender Chaos

If you are looking for something a bit different to do on the evening of 10 May 2026, there is a comedy show called Tender Chaos happening at Presuming Ed. It is part of the Brighton Fringe, and the format is a mixed bill, which usually means you get a bit of variety rather than just one long set. The lineup features Victor Vacheron, Eva-Jade Andrews, Chiff Powell, Joe Williams, and Katy Barber. The organisers describe the show as a mix of bold new acts and unfiltered performances, with a tagline that highlights "soft boys, fearless women, and questionable role models." It sounds like the kind of show that leans into big feelings and a high-energy atmosphere.

The show runs for 60 minutes and includes an interval, which is handy if you need a break. It is worth noting that this is an 18+ event, so you will need to bring ID if you are lucky enough to look young. They also have a strict policy regarding children, so no babes in arms are allowed. The venue, Presuming Ed, is set up to be accessible, with accessible toilets and they do allow assistance dogs if that is relevant for you.

One of the more straightforward aspects of this event is the pricing. It operates on a "Pay What You Want" basis, which takes the pressure off if you are just curious to see what it is about without committing to a fixed ticket price upfront. Just be aware that the content includes occasional strong language, which is fairly standard for this type of comedy, but good to know before you head down. It is a local production, so if you are around Brighton that weekend and fancy catching some new comedy acts, it is an option to consider.
