It's been 10 years since Eli was made Head Environment Prefect at high school. It's hard to believe he still hasn't saved the world. In fact he's starting to worry he's made it worse. When everything in the world seems terrible, can one Inconvenient Poof make a difference? 'Filled with topical humour, hilarious anecdotes and huge laughs' ***** (FreshAir.org.uk, Edinburgh 2018). 'Leaves a lot of other comedians wallowing in the past... deserves to be massive' ***** (ShortCom.co.uk). 'Nails every punchline' ***** (New Zealand Herald).
