Dylan Moran – We Got This

How can it be you have spent a whole ten minutes staring at a banana?
Why do you always do stuff like that?
Why do you never do the other really great things where it’s much, much better – and afterwards you don’t want to saw off your own face and post it back to yourself with not quite enough stamps?
Also, learn how to make breakfast not even knowing you are out of bed
Diagnose the mirror, reason with the mice and boil yoghurt blindfolded.
Enjoy the fruits of hurtling cognitive decline and your neighbour’s sprawling ghastliness, absence of humanity and so, so much more.
These times have not been easy.
We Got This is the brand new show from BAFTA and Perrier award winning comedian Dylan Moran. It promises to be a joyously furious romp through the frustration and folly of modern day life.

Jonny & The Baptists – Dance Like It Never Happened
2022-05-13 20:00 - 22:00 | Royal and Derngate Theatre, 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP
This is a show about grief. This is a show about loss. Just not how you’d expect.
Dance Like It Never Happened is the funniest, most joyful and uplifting show you will ever see about feeling totally bereaved.
In 2019, we lost another election, our place in Europe and, worst of all, a dearly beloved friend. We are no strangers to grief, but it hurt.
Then in 2020, we all lost the world as we knew it. Our decades-long system of “dealing with emotions” (ignore them, drink heavily and make jokes) finally broke. We finally broke.
