Yozi managed to show me surrealist comedy isn't quite for me.

There were plenty of jokes and bits, people were enjoying it. Interesting storytelling, the disco ball is pretty immense.

I loved this show! Such inventive storytelling led by a deeply charming performer. I never knew what was coming next and delighted in every moment of the wild ride. Full of laughs and surprises.

I went a few nights ago with friends and had a great time. The storytelling is incredible and Yoz is mesmerising on stage. I did not see the hour go by. Would 100% recommend.

Took a group of friends to see this show and we were all roaring with laughter. Yoz is a deeply silly and brilliant on stage and even seeing this show for the second time I still found each bit as funny as the first time I had seen it.
It doesn't just feel like a show about autism but also a show FOR autists and perhaps other neurotypes (I can only speak for myself) so I double recommend this to fellow autistic ppl.
It gets five stars from me!

Do not go to the show expecting an hour of stand up comedy, because this is a melting pot of theatre, clown and comedy. Yozi is a very clever and funny storyteller. Their approach to comedy is a mixture of wordplay, character and clowning. While there are moments which are completely absurd and silly (the pickle jar) there is also a lot of relatable and very human moments too.

I didn’t like this show personally. I didn’t find it very funny and wouldn’t recommend.

Yozi’s stage presence is captivating and endlessly hilarious
