Henry Paker: Man Alive

Date: Saturday, Nov 2 2019
Time: 8:00pm
Venue: The Wardrobe Theatre

Star of Comedy Central at the Comedy Store, Josh (BBC3) and co-writer and star of Radio 4’s Small Scenes, Henry Paker’s latest show is a unique mixture of stand up comedy and illustration which took the Edinburgh Fringe by storm.

A delightfully twisty and turny hour in which Henry uses cartoons to tell a story about a lonely man who lives in a forest in a house full of clocks, alongside delivering stand up routines about marriage, commuting and dark chocolate. Somewhere between a graphic novel, a stand up show and a fairy tale.

“An introvert’s fantasia….Paker exceeds your expectations in a wonderfully ingenious way” ★★★★ The Times
