About this show
What happens when the compulsion to avoid conflict at all costs collides with the messy realities of adult life? Loss of identity, marriage troubles, and a terrible misunderstanding in a Barcelona sex club, that's what. In his debut Edinburgh comedy hour, Barcelona-based Englishman, James Regal, explores what it means to know yourself when you've spent your life being whoever the room needs you to be. 'Sharp and playful' (Michelle Wolf). 'A corking tale…with a remarkable late twist' (British Comedy Guide). Dov's Best Jewish Joke of the Edinburgh Fringe 2024. 'Loose, raw, and genuinely funny.'
