Nicky Vere-Compton: Freaks and Fools

Freaks and Fools


1982 - "Rentaghost" is on the telly and the word 'autistic' hasn't come to East Grinstead. 11 year old Nicky isn't sure they're a girl. Isn't it more likely they're a cigar chomping baritone god?


Alternative standup, musical comedian and genuine baritone, Nicky Vere-Compton, is back, with more entirely true stories and songs about ramping it up as a short fat autistic queer. With a Special Guest Appearance from flying saucers!


"A festival of fun ... hilarious ... genuine passion for refusing to be beaten down by normative society."

Four stars (Neurodiverse Review)


"A one-person fairground attraction of sumptuous silliness and Rent-a-Ghost realness." (Kyle Wallace, G&B Comedy)


"Nicky is a rare gem of surrealist comedy." (multi-award winning comedian, Stephen Catling)
