About the show
Kevin Precious used to be a teacher. He enjoyed the teaching part; it was the stuff that goes with it that was a drag. So he left.
Determined to get a “Grown Up Career” after years spent as a musician, Kevin trained as a Religious Studies Teacher, despite being an affirmed sceptic and non-believer. Whilst wrangling with disinterested kids in various Secondary Schools in Sussex during the day, Kevin increasingly pursued the business of stand-up comedy at night… inevitably something had to give. The show is a funny overview of the pitfalls and pratfalls that go with Kevin’s former profession of teaching; with a bit of pedagogical stuff (ooh-er) thrown in for good measure.

'Instantly recognisable stage presence and boundless energy' -Leicester Mercury
