Pierre Novellie embarks on debut tour
- Pierre Novellie is to tour his Edinburgh Fringe hit show in 2023
- Why Can't I Just Enjoy Things? will tour the UK between September and November
- After a January/February run at Soho Theatre, tickets are on sale now
Comedian Pierre Novellie is to embark on his first stand-up tour in 2023.
Why Can't I Just Enjoy Things?, which enjoyed a 5-star-rated and British Comedy Guide Recommended run at the 2022 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, sees the comedian, writer and podcaster look into why he can't just enjoy things.
After a run at London's prestigious comedy venue Soho Theatre from 30th January to 8th February, the show will resume in Oxford late in September, taking in locations such as Exeter, York, Newcastle, Norwich and Bath, before concluding in Salford in mid-November.
Promoters Avalon tease: "Award-winning comedian Pierre Novellie looks into why he can't just enjoy things. It's observational comedy for people who think they hate observational comedy.
"Pierre isn't a curmudgeon, exactly, it's just most things feel about 6/10 - and he doesn't see eye-to-eye with anyone else on what makes a 0/10 or a 10/10. Through his comedy, Pierre tries to work out why, enlisting along the way the help of fish blood, Charles Dickens and the 'piss goblin'.
"Is Pierre his own worst enemy when it comes to breaking through to the 'fun zone' or is everyone else in the world wrong? And if he is wrong: why?"
Tickets for most dates are on sale now via his website, pierrenovellie.com.
