This show is in the Nucleus room at Just The Tonic's Atomic venue, about 200 yards up the road from The Pleasance Courtyard. 'A masterclass in tempo, tone and character' (Guardian). 'A goosebump inducing show that lays bare the limits of comedy' (Telegraph).

Incredibly brave, side-splitting and original stand up comedy touching on mental health, sobriety and … slotted spoons. Best stand up I’ve seen at this year’s Fringe by a country mile and a master class in not relying on out of date tropes and stereotypes to be funny.

An hour listening to someone talk about alcoholism doesn’t sound very funny but John makes this touching, relatable, deeply human and also hilarious in places. Highly recommended.

I have never felt anything walking away from a comedy show as wrenching as Howl. Yet it might be one of the funniest shows I have ever seen, quite possibly the best.
