The MC is the School of Arts and Architectures\u2019 own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kent.ac.uk\/arts\/people\/544\/double-oliver\"><strong>Oliver Double<\/strong><\/a>, whose wonky compering includes catchy songs, cheerful political rage, and asking the audience stupid questions. Don\u2019t be surprised if he comes and talks to you before the show, because he makes a point of coming around and greeting punters personally. He might even offer you a free badge. There\u2019s also a caption competition, and the show ends with the audience voting for the winner, and the winner taking home a weird grocery-based prize.<\/p>\n<p>Funny Rabbit goes out of its way to be friendly and inclusive, and we strive to make sure that the line-up of acts is as inclusive as possible. We embrace diversity in all its forms \u2013 not just giving a platform to people with different identities, but also promoting different styles of comedy. We are also deeply committed to silliness, playfulness, and industrial-strength fun.<\/p>\n<p>Funny Rabbit is radical and exciting, but also warm and snuggly as a bunny rabbit.
