Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2024
James Barr fearlessly tackles the aftermath of an abusive relationship in an hour of trailblazing stand-up. Outrageous punchlines and courageous storytelling as James overcomes the chaos of a brutal breakup, from surviving online abuse from Piers Morgan's fans to cancelling a Flamingo adoption at his local zoo. After two smash-hit, critically-acclaimed runs, James returns to Edinburgh. Co-directed by Maddie Parry (Director of Hannah Gadsby's Emmy Award-winning Nanette). 'A masterclass in queer storytelling' ***** (Metro). As heard daily on Hits Radio.
