I grew up playing classical piano, but failed my conservatory audition at 18. I spent some time focusing on MDMA, then started stand-up in 2011. During the pandemic I came back to the piano, and so I wrote this show to combine them. It's my favourite piece, Chopin's Nocturne in Eb Major, presented with jokes by a bald dickhead with a beard.

I've got a terrible feeling about this show. Like somehow the whole thing is doomed. I have this recurring dream where I'm on stage, thousands of miles from home and the crowd has turned on me. There are thousands of them and they are all booing me and Sofia Vergara (from Modern Family) is there and so is Simon Cowell and he’s slamming his fist into a red buzzer and the sound splits the air like a gunshot and the ceiling rips open and confetti rains down like debris but the booing only gets louder and louder and louder and louder and then I wake up, and realise that all of that actually happened to me. This show has nothing to do with that story. I doubt I'll even mention it. As booed on America's Got Talent 'Offers nothing personal and almost no actual content.' ★★★★ Chortle (UK) 'Egotistical delusions.' ★★★★ The Scotsman (UK) 'Indescribable.' ★★★★ The List (UK) 'Disorderly.' ★★★★★ Isolated Nation 'When it was evening, he reclined at table with the twelve. And as they were eating, he said, “Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me.” And they were very sorrowful and began to say to him one after another, “Is it I, Lord?”' Matthew 26:20 Doors to the club will open at 6:30pm for a sharp 7pm start.
