Description

Are you a functional mess? Are you daily wondering what the point of your life is? Do you have a better relationship with your postman than your family? Are all your relationships toxic and meaningless and delightful? Well, you are clearly a mess. And this show is for you. Sometimes sweet, sometimes dark, but always funny - join award-winning Irish comedian John O'Keeffe as he explains his chequered dating life, impossible family, self-diagnosed ADHD and his flimsy, threadbare hopes for the future.
