Have you ever forensically over-thought your life choices?
Are they all somehow connected to a passing comment your Spanish teacher made
when you were 15? Has it impacted everything from your love life to your
career?

Following sold-out shows across the UK, the Edinburgh Fringe
Festival and Soho Theatre, Celya AB (“One of the most gifted joke writers of
her age” – Chortle) is back with a new show with her brand of “exceptional, not
to mention impressively original” (British Comedy Guide) jokes and sharp
observations.

This is a show about breaking free from shame, and what
ensues when you do.

As seen on Live At The Apollo, the Off Menu podcast and
Comedy Central Live.

Fresh from supporting Greg Davies on his ‘Full Fat Legend’
tour, Barry brings his own show to Royal Court Theatre, Liverpool.

Having become a father quite late in life, in all honestly,
he’s just delighted to be away for a few days to get some good sleep (although
he won’t be telling his partner that and he hopes she won’t read this. Why
would she? She’s not going to be booking tickets to see him in Liverpool).

Embarrassingly, he’s got a racist dog, so a break from
constantly apologising in the local park is also a bonus.

Oh, and he’s furious his parents chose the name Barry.

Expect stories about these and other awkward situations in a
show packed with laughs.

He’d like to point out that he wrote the above (and this)
and to be honest, he finds it a bit weird to be writing in the third person. He
also thinks it’s presumptuous to say his show is packed with laughs (even
though he’s very confident it will be). Why don’t you be the judge and come
along? He’d also like to clarify that the quotes below weren’t written by him
but by actual reviewers (and an endorsement from Greg Davies). And he’d like to
thank you for the time you’ve spent reading this and he hopes to see you on the
24th September.

“Astonishingly funny”★★★★★ -The List

“Perfect” ★★★★★-3 weeks

“Hugely entertaining” ★★★★ -Chortle

“A confident, likeable comic, it’s his self-deprecating
bemusement that provides the most hilarity.” ★★★★ -Metro

“His charm and willingness to make himself look ridiculous
carry him through the trickiest of subject matter.” ★★★??

-Edfest

“By far the funniest Barry I know (since my uncle
died)” -Greg Davies

He has also recently supported Rhod Gilbert and Troy Hawke and at The UK Comedy Awards 2023 was voted Comic’s Comic-Best Act.Andrew is always worried or stressed about something. From global events to finding free parking. From a wife hitting the perimenopause combined with two teenage kids, to hanging a wine-rack. How can he not be “on edge”? Having previously supported Russell at Bristol’s Ashton Gate Football stadium he’s also supported Rob Brydon, America’s Brian Regan and Michelle Wolfe on their only London shows and Michael McIntyre on an entire arena tour including Wembley and the O2. He was only 1 of 7 comedians to perform in front of Banksy at Dismal Land and he’s written on the recent series of 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown. “A brilliantly funny comedian” -Russell Howard “Funny as hell” -Rhod Gilbert “Birdie supported me on my arena tour and made me laugh every night. Truly an excellent comedian.” -Michael McIntyre “Love it.

Join us for our second annual, monthly DoES Pub Quiz!

There will be bad prizes, convoluted rules that may or may not be made up on the fly, and the warm happy feeling you get from supporting DoES. And me. I have kids I should be looking after rather than finding out the worldwide gross of Gremlins 2.

Also! We’ll have alcohol available and will graciously allow you to bring food in.

So come along, learn some stuff and potentially win the right to laud your superior intellect over everyone else which, when we get right down to it, is all anyone really ever wants.

Doors at 7:30pm, starting at 8pm (ish), £5 per team (max. 5 people to a team).
