Simon Amstell

Hello.

Like everyone else, Simon Amstell will die.

However before that, he will be performing stand up comedy in this theatre.
Please do not attend if the date clashes with something in your own life.

Thank you. Goodbye.



‘Amstell shows off a more tender side and delves into his inner life to expose an unexpected sensitivity... where philosophy collides with anxiety: where Heidegger meets Woody Allen... the real deal'
The Guardian

'A distracted 'mad professor' demeanour masking a dry free-wheeling wit'
The Observer

'Glimmering intelligence.'
Independent On Sunday

'As close as you can get to a man emotionally and philosophically disembowelling himself on stage.'
The Sunday Times

'Intellectually sophisticated, engagingly honest, genuinely accomplished stand-up... one of the most elegant, articulate, sensitive and endearing proponents of 'Soul Comedy' that there is'
The Scotsman

'Consistently witty and intelligent... perceptive and very funny.'
The Stage

'His showily neurotic but deliberately dry demeanour melding neatly into the existentialist... Amstell has intelligently got the audience to see the world his own way'.
Metro

'Amstell… offers a probing cerebral show. He speaks for a disconnected, disengaged chunk of Britain, sitting in their own trendily furnished boxes waiting for the world - or some meaningful cause – to come bursting through their door. It doesn't.'
The Independent

'Simultaneously challenging and playful, delivered with a wonderful sharp mind. It all points to an intelligent comic who is becoming better almost by the day.'
Chortle

'Stimulating, self-deprecating... a witty, poised and revealing show'
The Times

'Frank, philosophical and painfully funny, able to wrestle gut-wrenching laughs out of his existential angst... the Jean Paul Sartre of stand-up'
Evening Standard

Presented by Mick Perrin for Just for Laughs Live.
There will be a support act.
