Following sell out Fringe runs in 2013 & 2014, The Pin, the comedy double act that comprises Alexander Owen and Ben Ashenden, are returning to the Fringe with a brand new hour Ten Seconds With The Pin. This year, after recording their own Radio 4 series (due to air this summer), selling out a run at the Soho Theatre, and appearing on Comedy Central, BBC Three and Dave, The Pin are hot property.

The Pin are screwed. They just can't write a sketch that they like. In fact they don't really seem to understand sketches at all. Armed with their unique brand of deconstructive "intellectual slapstick" (Sunday Times) they take the audience through a retrospective look at their botched sketch attempts, desperate to work out where they've been going wrong. As the hour progresses, they start to learn some pretty important lessons, culminating in a brand new ten seconds of material. Ten seconds isn't much, but what if it's the best ten seconds of comedy ever...?
