As the survivors of a global pandemic crawl from their fortified boltholes and begin to rebuild society, what is left of them and who amongst them dares to lead them to the light? Join critically acclaimed and multi award-winning comedian Nick Helm as he embarks on a show so insightful, so honest, so legitimate that it will fix all of society's problems and lead the way to a new plane of existence. This is the future. The future is now. 'A true mastermind' ***** (EdFestMag.com). 'Terrific' **** (Times). 'Triumphant' **** (List).Alfie Brown: Sensitive Man
Does emotion help us make moral judgments? Alfie will address this question using jokes. There is a joke about Formula1 that isn’t actually about Formula1. There is a joke about shopping that’s not really about shopping. There is a joke about parking tickets, and so on. These jokes will weave together to create something greater than the sum of their parts. You can disagree, but you must laugh. This is Alfie’s most accomplished show yet and is now an Amazon Prime Special. 'Motoring towards a masterpiece' **** (Evening Standard). **** (Telegraph). **** (Guardian).
