SETTLE women Christine Hooley and Veronica Caperon are taking on the Yorkshire Tour de France with their show at the Grassington Festival Fringe.

Lippy Logic Rides Again, on Wednesday June 25, is written and produced by Christine and Veronica and features new and original comedy and drama.

The pair formed Lippy Logic last year after finding a lack of suitable comedy and drama sketches for women to perform.

And it ended up receiving critical acclaim at the Fringe.

The show is also part of the Yorkshire Festival Fringe which celebrates the arrival of The Tour de France in the county.

It shows the pair as they encounter the Tour near Grassington and includes their new piece "Photographing Kites" which stirs up poignant family memories with both humour and acute observation of human emotion.

To round the programme off they will deliver their new song with musical accompaniment to the unsuspecting public.

When not treading the boards, Christine runs a village post office in the Yorkshire Dales and Veronica is a professional photographer and copywriter.

They are also taking the show on tour to the Midlands and Richmondshire during the year. Tickets for the Grassington Festival Fringe event at The Methodist Church, Chapel Lane are available from grassington-festival.org.uk, 01756 752691, or Crossleigh Stores in Austwick near Settle 015242 51415.
