James Acaster review
If I were a comic watching this I'd be weeping with envy at seeing Acaster add another string to his bow. For everyone else, just sit back and enjoy a modern master at the top of his game.

Steve Bennett, Chortle, 1st November 2018Comedy review: James Acaster at the Vaudeville, WC2
At the core of this show is a magnificently choreographed piece of storytelling that manages to be hilarious and unsettling.
Clive Davis, The Times, 1st November 2018James Acaster: Cold Lasagne Hate Myself 1999 review
Gone is some of the whimsy of previous shows, jettisoned in favour of raw openness. It's this unexpected honesty, however, coupled with Acaster's expert control, that elevates personal tragedy to new heights.

Comic genius delves deep into his psyche.
Bruce Dessau, Evening Standard, 31st October 2018James Acaster review
Cold Lasagne Hate Myself 1999 is a revelation. In a career-defining two-hour show, he takes all of his comic inventiveness and throws it at some of stand-up's most fashionable tropes.
Alice Jones, i Newspaper, 31st October 2018James Acaster review
The standup refines his intricate tales with a note of personal poignancy for a set that will leave you drunk on its brilliance.
