About this show
An immersive comedy show about Milton Keynes Shopping Centre? Oh, go on then. So You Think You're Funny? 2024 semi-finalist and interior designer Michael McPheat presents a WIP masterpiece celebrating the beauty of his hometown. A high-energy spectacle confronting mortality, memory and modernism, set in the utopian town of the future, now named 'One of the worst places to live in Britain.' Developed with Soho Theatre Labs Plus and Elf Lyons. 'We feel McPheat's sincerity in everything he says, and it only makes his jokes all the funnier' (PepperAndSalt.uk).
