A charming debut hour about finally coming to terms with being happy. Join 'one of the most delightful performers you're ever likely to see' (GQ) on an expedition across continents with David Attenborough, to the depths of despair via Walt Disney and to sincere satisfaction courtesy of pesto. Overcoming the difficulties of living somewhere great and a really straightforward relationship to find comedy where comedy is. Paramount and Chortle Student Competition finalist Laura Lexx packs 'real comedic steel' (Guardian Weekend) into a refreshingly uplifting hour of celebratory comedy.
