Jack Evans' debut hour. Silly stand-up, absurd animation and weird characters from the creator of Manchester's acclaimed alternative comedy extravaganza Quippodrome. It starts with Jack's trademark off-kilter stand-up, but when his loser mate Bald Eagle joins him, things get weird. Meet Detective Inspector Horse Hand, a disgraced Scottish murder cop with a mutant hand; Barry Shafto, Bolton's best (and cheapest) demon hunter and Maurice, the world's foremost pick-up artist, men's rights activist and generally despicable human being. 'Twisted genius' (WOW247.co.uk). 'A comic like no other operating out of the Northwest' (Skinny). 'Bizarre and intelligent' (ManchesterWire.co.uk).
