About the show
For twenty years, Robin Ince and Josie Long have been performing and making things together.
Now, after two decades of friendship, creativity and comedy, they are coming together for a special tour celebrating curiosity, collaboration and the joy of finding wonder in unexpected places.
Expect a joyfully unpredictable evening of stand-up, poetry, conversation, (plenty of) digressions and whatever else emerges when two endlessly curious minds share a stage.
Featuring - Josie Long
Claiming her first BBC Comedy Award by the age of 17, Josie returned to performing after finishing University, notably at the Edinburgh Fringe, where she carried on winning awards for 'Kindness and Exuberance' (Best Newcomer) and later in 2007/8 for 'Trying Is Good'.
She regularly writes for The Guardian and has appeared on The Island (Channel 4), The Superhuman’s Show (Channel 4), Russell Howard’s Stand Up Central (Comedy Central) and Dara O’Briain’s Go 8 Bit.
The Telegraph have described her as 'one of the most exciting female comics around'. Josie's humour is warm, optimistic and endearing, filled with rambling daft tales and all the things she likes in the world and which cheer her up.
