About this show
Multi award-winning comedian Richard Pulsford has taken a step away from his usual quality one-liners and pun shows to write and perform this new autobiographical show. This show sees Richard taking a nostalgic dive into his parents’ past as he tries to understand what made them who they were, and therefore discover who he is. His parentage is an unusual mix, with a dad from Yorkshire and a "foreign" mum from continental Europe. Perhaps it should be no surprise that with such a heritage, Richard ended up being, by his own admission, funny.
