Can a butterfly flapping its wings in the Amazon cause a tornado in Texas? Debut stand up show from the comedian's comedian.

The theory of the Butterfly Effect states how seemingly trivial events can have huge consequences and explains how one ninny's inability to text the word spaghetti can lead to a 15 mile tailback on the motorway.

The Butterfly Effect is a small part of Chaos theory, one of the most recent and radical sciences which explains how the universe is as unpredictable as a coach load of drunken granddads.

Essentially a show about chain reactions that moves from stand up comedy to a new medium of stand up fiction; a selection of interconnecting short stories presented and performed by their author.

Never before has there been a show at the fringe festival about chaos yet this year two shows arrive, both from comedians called Ian (the other show by Ian Stone). How perfectly chaotic!

Ian Fox is a stand up comedian living in Manchester and has performed all over the UK and abroad. In 2004 he was runner up in the City Life Comedian of the Year competition; previous runners up have included Dave Gorman and Johnny Vegas. He was also a member of the topical comedy team Men@Work at the Manchester Comedy Store.
