In April 2015, Robin Ince announced that he really had to stop doing stand-up as he was on the cusp of insanity. Audiences disagreed, believing he'd breached that cusp long ago. After spending 18 months touring with Professor Brian Cox and writing his new book, I'm A Joke... and So Are You, he realised it was time to start the trepanning again and returns with a new show. Inspired by Philip K Dick, Kurt Vonnegut and others, expect stories of aggressive kindness, rabies and death. 'Bursting with energy and ideas' **** (Times).

The problem with comedians is that all the reasons that mean they must be on stage or all the reasons they must never be on stage.
Robin Ince, Robin Ince's Blog, 3rd August 2017Eddie Izzard, airing cupboards & the nature of writing
Eddie Izzard once advised me that I should not have an airing cupboard. He had come round to my flat to play Escape from Colditz. He won. He told me an airing cupboard was a level of luxury too great and no creativity could come from warm or even dry towels.

Are there some topics you shouldn't joke about or that you shouldn't want to joke about? Is suicide one of them?
