When clowns can't breathe water and fish can't breathe air – what's a poor Clown Fish to do in this cruel world? In 2025, Catling (Keep It Fringe Award Winner 2023, Malcolm Hardee Award Nominee 2023 and 2025) lost his slug mask. It was an essential part of his cult hit show Moving On...Really Really Slowly. This time, Stephen explores his life now that Autism has been “unmasked", as well as his fin flapping rage against an increasingly soulless entertainment industry. Who knows what is going to be in store?
