Pioneering alt-comedy hero and star of Cats Does Countdown Paul Foot is back on tour with a brand new stand-up show. 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. As seen on Would I Lie To You?, Never Mind the Buzzcocks and 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown. Winner: (ISH) Edinburgh Comedy Awards 2023 – Best Show Co-Winner ‘Funnier and more daring than I’ve ever seen him… [has] the audience laughing so hard they’re about to leave their bodies’ ★★★★★ Chortle Presented by Plosive Live Age guidance 14+
