As seen on TV’s Thank God You’re Here, Randling, Spicks and Specks and in the feature film Any Questions For Ben?

After a sell-out run at London’s Soho Theatre,Perth Comedy Festival and Melbourne International Comedy Festival, over 10 four or five star reviews at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival alone, and being nominated for Best Comedy at every Australian comedy festival in 2012, Felicity is taking her smash-hit show on the road!

So, what is The Hedgehog Dilemma? Being able to find a tiny jacket that fits your spikes? Or every time you get close to another hedgehog, it hurts?

“For a hedgehog to stay warm, it must endure pain through physical contact. But for a hedgehog to remain unharmed, it must choose loneliness and the cold.”

After discovering the definition was an analogy for human intimacy, Felicity wondered how often that had happened to her, or how often her spikes had hurt others, or how they’d find a jacket that small anyway.

“What kind of hedgehog am I?” Felicity pondered…and then she wrote this show.
