An evening of laughs and more from two of comedy’s most accomplished storytellers John Dowie & Dave Cohen.
Writer, comedian and ‘Horrible Histories’ songwriter Dave Cohen performs his epic show “Music Was My First Love”.
“like ‘The Odyssey’, with jokes.”
“An insightful cultural history, ambitious, evocative and diverting…a genially amusing and literate account of interesting times.” Steve Bennett, Chortle
And legendary John Dowie will be reading extracts from his forthcoming memoir ‘The Freewheeling John Dowie’, soon to be published by Unbound.
“John Dowie is the archaeopteryx of alternative comedy, in that the fossil record makes no sense without him. Now, this appallingly funny and delightfully miserable man delivers hard-won insights into the great cycle of life and love and death from the vantage point of a great cycle. In this marvellous book, one of the most important comic voices of our time explores Britain, Europe and his own life in the effortless glide that comes with any downhill journey. I genuinely cannot recommend this cornucopia of middle-England majesty too highly.”
Alan Moore
