Remember when people were excited for the future? With visions of jetpacks, friendly robots wheeling around and solar-powered bidets. Well, we don’t have visions like that anymore, do we? But the universe is not over. The light has not gone out. Here’s a candle in the dark. Contagious and whispering. And you can take it with you when you leave. A new stand-up show from pioneering alt-comedy hero and star of Cats Does Countdown. (ISH) Edinburgh Comedy Awards Best Show winner, 2023. ‘Has the audience laughing so hard they’re about to leave their bodies’ ***** (Chortle.co.uk).
