How To Be A Better Human

This event has passed

£12.50

“2019…I lost Dad.
Well, I didn’t lose him. I knew where he was –
in the coffin at the front of the crem.”

A spoken word comedy about grief, loss and self-acceptance telling Chris’ story of losing Dad and Wife in the space of a few months. Exploring lightness and humour in death and divorce. How we can lose everything and find the strength to rebuild. How growing a beard can be the best decision of your life, and why some hedgehogs are absolute d*******s.

“a refreshing message in a low-key spoken word show…honest and entertaining”– Lyn Gardner, The Stage

“True artistic vulnerability.” – Leeds Playhouse

Shortlisted for Best Spoken Word Show (Saboteur Awards 2022) and Birds of Paradise Exceptional Theatre Award.
