Ania Magliano – ‘Forgive Me, Father’

You know when you're trying to wee on a night out, and you're interrupted by a random girl who insists on telling you all her secrets even though you've never met? Imagine that, but she has a microphone.

After two critically acclaimed sell-out runs at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and a sold-out Soho Theatre run, Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Show 2023 nominee Ania Magliano is back on tour.

‘Consistently amusing and deceptively daring' (**** Times' Top 4 Best Comedy Shows 2023). ***** (Telegraph), **** (Guardian, Evening Standard, Time Out).

Writer for Amelia Dimoldenberg.

Ania’s choices on Off Menu are widely regarded as the worst of all time.

Tickets - £17.50 plus £1 booking fee

Show starts at 7.30pm

After two consecutive critically acclaimed shows, rising star Chloe Petts is back on the road with a brand-new hour… and this time she’s getting personal. Between her newly found trolls, oldly found school bullies, and an excellent relationship with her food tech teacher, Chloe brings her trademark laddishness to tell you who she really is, all while her Head Girl badge glistens upon her chest.

Star of Hannah Gadsby's Gender Agenda (Netflix), host of Toilet Humour (BBC Radio 4), has had her own regular segment on Sky Sports News, and has also been seen and heard on Have I got News for You (BBC), MOTDx (BBC), The Frank Skinner Show (Absolute Radio), Jonathan Ross’s Comedy Club (ITV), The Stand-Up Sketch Show (ITV2), and Richard Osman's House of Games (BBC).

The Eyes Open and Shut Show is a show about eyes when they are open and eyes when they are shut. With this show Rob wanted to explore what he could do to himself and others with language when eyes are open and shut. After writing ten shows on specific themes, he wanted to think about what makes him open his eyes and what makes him shut them.

TV credits include: Starstruck (BBC), Cold Feet (ITV), The End of the F*cking World (Netflix/Channel 4), Miracle Workers (TBS), The Russell Howard Hour (Sky), Stand-Up Central With Rob Delaney (Comedy Central).

Oh, it’s all there! All the trademarks are in evidence in Ardal’s latest show. Beautifully crafted stand-up comedy? Yes. Celebrated use of language? Tick. Lateral thinking, surreal flourishes, sharp observations? Of course. As for the occasional profundity? Maybe.

Despite his best attempts over many decades to put the world to rights, it is still a colossal mess. And so, Ardal has no choice but to go out on the road again. Like the good comedy doctor he is, he fearlessly diagnoses the various pathologies and neuroses that are currently ravaging humanity. Disclaimer: No solutions provided.

After an alarming experience at the supermarket, Ardal reflects on who he is as a man and a comedian. He examines his own ethnic and religious background. And thinks twice about the very core of his identity as a voice of reason. Is everything a big lie?

With no major trauma of his own to draw on for material, apart from the drag of getting older, he also turns his gaze outwards at the joys and follies of contemporary life.

Towel Animals? A.I.? Chair Yoga? Cauliflower as a main course? Yes. Yes. Yes. And Yes. No current idiocy is left unexamined.

With a highly developed sense of the ridiculous, and proper comedy bones, Not Himself is a testament to the healing power of humour. And the joy of jokes.
