About this show
John Norris (Mr Chonkers, allegedly) is trying out 1-3 hours of new stuff. Goofs, gags, musings, bits and vague energy. Nonsense. If you're the type of person that needs more information before coming to a show, well, this is not for you. Stay far away, my friend. Save yourself. No press allowed. No awards judges allowed.

4.5 stars The strange thing is that someone this talented doesn’t comfortably fit anywhere. He should be on taskmaster really, but he’s not. Perhaps that’s exactly why people cram into rooms to see him.
