The Small World Of Dominic Holland
Two series of stand-up comedy and sketches from the hilarious, award-winning comic Dominic Holland.
Since winning the Perrier Best Newcomer Award at the Edinburgh Festival in 1993, Dominic Holland has gone on to become one of the UK's best loved comedians. He's worked with Armando Iannucci, Rob Brydon and supported Eddie Izzard on tour. He is also the father of Tom Holland (best known for starring in the blockbuster Spider-Man movies) and made the brilliant 2017 Dominic Holland Eclipsed Edinburgh Fringe show out of the experience of being a superhero's dad.
The Small World of Dominic Holland will have you laughing out loud as the comedian points out the pitfalls of growing up, becoming an adult and having children. He shares his thoughts in a series of stand-up routines and sketches illustrating the minutiae of life - from what we do with our leisure time and how we shop, to exploring fear and pain and the perils of domesticity. Dominic Holland's unique powers of observation make for hilariously addictive listening.
In Holland's Shorts Dominic shares the varied contents of his mind in a series of rapid-fire monologues. He uses a pay-and-display car park, ponders the mysteries of airport shopping, considers the Theory of Evolution, deliberates TV chefs, cereal manufacturers and teachers, discusses the perils of the kidney bean and ponders how to steal a cash machine. And wonders, perhaps most pressingly of all, is there really anything tastier than chicken?
