About the show
Remember when people were excited for the future? With visions of jetpacks, friendly robots wheeling around and solar-powered bidets. Well, we don’t have visions like that anymore, do we? But the universe is not over. The light has not gone out. Here’s a candle in the dark. Contagious and whispering. And you can take it with you when you leave.
A new stand-up show from pioneering alt-comedy hero and star of Cats Does Countdown. (ISH) Edinburgh Comedy Awards Best Show winner, 2023.

'It's baffling to me that Paul is not a household name in this country. His routines are like jazz clusters, loose hammocks, choked to the brim with jokes and ideas'
(Noel Fielding)
'Inspired, surreal and incomprehensibly funny' (Chortle)
'Capable of raising a laugh with just a brief shudder in the beat between jokes' (Wow247)
'He is completely in charge. An hour in his company is one of wet faced glee and it's over in a flash' (The Scotsman).
