False chins. Giant ducks. Mouse with a moustache. Portable igloos. Mops for legs. On his last British and Irish tour, Jason re-introduced prop comedy mixed with stand up and audience participation. They loved it. So here is a brand new show from the very experienced, very funny, very absolutely trouser-wetting, very can't watch much more else I might die, comedian. 'Unmissable' (Evening Standard). 'Watching a new Jason Byrne show is a bit like witnessing lightning in a bottle' (Edinburgh Evening News). 'The outright king of live comedy' (Times).
