Ben Pope: Work in Progress
Ben Pope ("a total delight" - Fest) performs the ancient, hallowed, mystic art of stand-up comedy with a notebook full of stories and a brain full of junk. This show will be new stuff, old stuff, trial, error, metaphors and gossip. Basically he's gonna crack his mind open and see what falls out, like the monkey does to that coconut in the Lion King.
Ben has appeared on Achievement Unlocked (Comedy Central), Comedy Guide to Life (Dave), BBC New Comedy Award on Radio 4 Extra, and supported Kieran Hodgson (Two Doors Down) on tour.
"Consistently funny and deceptively thoughtful" - The Scotsman
