Not A People Person
Support Act : Pat Cahill
From the brain that brought you millionaire cats eating Viennetta, gypsy cuddles and nanna wanks, comes a brand spanking new hour of mind blending internal self-hatred, paranoia and comedy – because you have to put comedy in it.
Years just don’t get any bigger than Sam Simmons’ 2015. He won the two biggest awards in live comedy (Foster’s Edinburgh Comedy Award and Barry Award Melbourne International Comedy Festival) and sold out runs at every major comedy festival.
‘If you can imagine someone combining the rage of Basil Fawlty with the lunacy of Spike Milligan you are getting somewhere close to Simmons’
The Evening Standard
‘Exhaustingly funny, daft and truly daring’
Timeout (★★★★★)
‘It’s not just weird, it’s wonderful too’
Chortle (★★★★)
‘One of the most riotously enjoyable hours at the Fringe’
The Independent (★★★★)
‘A breath of fresh air; in a sea of increasingly bland stand-up’
The Guardian (★★★★)
Uit het maffe brein dat aan de oorsprong lag van miljonair katten die Viennetta-ijstaart eten, zigeuneurknuffels en ‘nanna wanks’, ontspringt nu een nieuwe comedyshow. Gevoed door absurde zelfhaat, paranoia en comedy. Omdat comedy er ook in moest.
Sam Simmons had een topjaar in 2015. Hij won de 2 grootste live comedy awards (Foster’s Edinburgh Comedy Award and Barry Award Melbourne International Comedy Festival) en zijn shows op de grote comedy festivals in o.a. Edinburgh en Melbourne liepen keer op keer helemaal vol. En nu voegt hij ongetwijfeld nog Gent toe aan dat lijstje.
