Two Hearts has had an impressive rise over the past four years. Real-life couple Laura Daniel and Joseph Moore joined forces in 2017 to create the over-the-top pop duo, playing heightened versions of themselves already convinced of their success and talent the moment they first walked on stage.

The giant screens, the LED lights, the smoke machines; this was probably the most expensive show at this year's Comedy Festival, but it gives the characters of Two Heart their most authentic staging yet for their Madison Square Garden-level ambitions.
While their staging has grown, Two Hearts still delivers the expected comedy pop song brilliance fans have come to expect. Their opening song, Guess Who's Back, was the perfect mix of expertly mastered pop song and sketch show-esque comedy, and was the first sign that their onstage props had a key role to play in the show and weren't just decoration.
