Ollie Horn has turned to character comedy this year - playing a toxic man looking for a wife. It's a thrilling show, as he skilfully sails close to the wind in his interactions with the audience. It's not all crowdwork though - there's great scripted routines too.
Stick your tongue out, do a peace sign, and tilt your head. British Comedy Guide Recommended 2023 Ollie Horn returns with a brand-new, highly interactive, semi-improvised, laugh-out-loud show about how you can justify being toxic. Think of the WhatsApp group that you're ashamed to be in - the show will feel like that live on stage. 'Delivers every joke with a cheeky little smile' **** (EdFringeReview.com). 'Escapism and delight... can't help but lift your spirits' **** (Edinburgh Festivals Magazine). 'A clear passion for his craft' **** (BroadwayWorld.com).
