Event information

Viral for his wild improv and crowdwork videos, and creator of cult hit The Dark Room MR JOHN ROBERTSON invites you to enjoy 90 minutes of high-energy silliness, filth, improv, stand-up and dirty electric ukulele from the UK’s most manic comic!

Expect sing-a-longs! Crowdsurfs! Sex! Death! Nerd shit! After 22 years as a stand-up, and the huge success of The Dark Room, this is John’s first national UK stand-up tour! Come get played with!*

*And trust us, it’s not just him asking “What’s your job? That’s shit.” Unlike some famous comics with powerful legal teams, John only plays with people who want to be played with.

Note: This show is queer-friendly, geeky, neurodiverse and filthy as FUCK. Something for everyone!
