About this show
After last year's sold-out debut, Max is back and sorting through some boxes, but what will he find? Most likely a mixture of puppet characters, sketches and stand-up for you to rummage through. There'll be family history, charity shopping, financial advice and more! 'I couldn't physically breathe from laughing so much' * (ThreeWeeks). 'His ventriloquism skills are incredible... a terrific first outing' (EdFestMag.com). 'Original, charming, genuinely funny, clever... solid gold and has the house in stitches' (TheWeeReview.com).

— Theatre and Arts Reviews (5 out of 5 stars)
Max Fulham is a leading force in the dying art of ventriloquism. He also happens to be a brilliant potential stand up comedian.
— The Wee Review (4 out of 5 stars)
