Fresh from his debut BBC Three series and Total Theatre nominated Good Grief on BBC Radio 4, Jack Rooke presents Happy Hour - a comedy documentary theatre show set in the filthiest student, gay, wanky-exposed-brick-with-dangly-lightbulb bars, exploring why some mates leave the party and never ever come back. Jack featured in New York Times' highlights of Edinburgh Fringe 2015. 'Rooke writes mesmerising whirlpools of cleverly written, tenderly shocking, awfully funny anecdotes. ***** (Gay Times). 'Delightful to spend an hour with, cheerily but sensitively tackling the most painful of subjects and finding hope in them' **** (Scotsman).
