Have you ever wondered what to do if you find a baby by the side of the road? How to apply makeup to suit ‘your’ face? How to approach a crying girl at a party? Or how to enjoy life?

Never fear. Ireland's darling Maeve Higgins (Kitten Brides) and Australia’s resident Nick Coyle (Pig Island) will show you what to do. In A Rare Sight they play a married couple with all the answers to help you live your best life! Using skits, monologues, demonstrations, recipes, song and perhaps even dance, the pair will solve the many problems that plague humanity.

Don't miss this brand new show by two irresistible comic performers.

Maeve has her own TV show in Ireland with her sister Lily called 'Fancy Vittles' and has performed at festivals all over the world.

“I’m completely and irretrievably in love with Maeve Higgins. Not only is she smart, sexy, sassy and funny as all get out, she made me laugh, made me think and – as if this wasn’t enough already for one night’s entertainment – she also made me a cake!” Inpress Magazine, Melbourne 2009

Nick is a writer and performer, and is one third of the award winning comedy group Pig Island (Golden Gibbo winners, 2007 Melbourne International Comedy Festival).

‘Sublimely realised comedy' (Time Out Sydney), ‘Heading towards a higher plane of comedy’ **** (The Guardian)
