I recently had a near-death experience. I was on stage at a mental health charity fundraiser and thought the black walls were made of soft material. I turned to the audience, cheerfully asked 'may I?' and head-butted it. Turns out, it was solid concrete. The noise my skull made echoed around the room. I spent the next few days waiting to die. This show is loosely inspired by that. 'Majestic and challenging' ***** (List). 'Profound and disgusting' **** (Skinny). 'Demolishes the conventions of comedy' **** (Guardian). 'One-of-a-kind comic mind' **** (Times).
