About this show
What happens when you achieve your childhood dream of having a fashion Line in NYC but the realities don't match the fantasy. When you have to start again at an age you thought you'd have a summer house or at least financial security. We follow Nicholas on his journey from Edinburgh to London, New York, LA and back again, from designer to stand-up comic. Do we end up where we should be or are we at the hands of the fates? A debut show from one of the least relatable comics around.
