About this show
We might not be your first choice, but when has your first choice ever really worked out anyway? Four international comedians share brutally funny stories about dating, rejection, careers and always coming second... or not at all. This is a parade of commiseration for anyone who’s ever been overlooked – in relationships, in work, in life, and everything in between. We've done over 1,000 shows across Europe and this show has performed sold-out runs in the Netherlands. Come see us. This is a comedy line-up that finds humour in all of life’s disappointments.
