I must confess that a show named Absurdities/Bed didn't instill me with much confidence at the outset; I expected something farcical that would make me long for a quick and quiet exit.

I was happy to be proved wrong, however.

Absurdities portrays everyday events - an encounter with a homeless person, an arguing couple - with a sharp, urbane edge, as well as tackling some more philosophical questions with dialogue that was engaging and thought provoking, yet never taxing.

The second show Bed showcases the story of drunken love gone awry; a winding, twisting tale of the unforeseen consequences of your one innocent, cheeky pint. Absurdities/Bed is a funny, witty, show performed by a talented collection of comedians, which provides an excellent laugh.
