SUMMARY:Alfie Moore: Acopalypse Now
DESCRIPTION:The Four Horsemen of Rising Crime\, Global Warming\, AI and Culture Wars are galloping towards us. Are we on the road to hell? And can we avoid the potholes? In his brand new tour show Alfie has the antidote to the breakdown of law and order\, fake news and the price of baked beans. \nHe’s encountered more than his fair share of egotistical dictators in his policing career and learnt when pragmatism\, and more than a dash of laughter\, can defuse even the most menacing showdown. \nJoin Alfie as he’s saddles up to see off those bullies on their pesky ponies. Doomsday is no laughing matter\, but this show certainly is. \n“offbeat\, revealing and very funny”  – You Magazine \n“Brilliantly funny…genuinely hilarious” – David Mitchell \n“His charisma shines through as bright and colourful as a twirling blue light” – Times
