John Kearns: Tilting At Windmills

Event Type

Genre : Comedy

Description

Tilting at Windmills is the brand-new stand-up show from Taskmaster alumni and double Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner, John Kearns.

A fragmented, digressing portrayal of a 38-year-old man?s life, alluding to books he hasn't read, touching on the modern condition. Plus VAT! More allusive and bleak as ever, it is unreal the comedian you become. And for who? Decent craic with the right crowd. A show for those who have read about but not committed to the Guinness Nitrosurge.

Seen bewildered on Taskmaster (Channel 4), terrified on Live at the Apollo (BBC), getting through Never Mind the Buzzcocks (Sky), and implicating others on his Sky stand-up special The Varnishing Days. More comfortable on pods but comes alive on stage, for your pleasure!

?most will surely be won over?with the delightful, poetic flourish that defines all his work? perfectly structured with overlapping themes and surprising callbacks? It?s all rather wonderful?
