Tim Key

Saturday, 20 February
Times : 21:45 - 22:45 21:45 - 22:45

Soho Theatre, 21 Dean Street, Soho, W1D 3NE

This is the show that won comic poet Tim Key the main Edinburgh Comedy Award last year - the highest accolade a comedian can receive in the UK.

On the back of his 2008 show The Slut In The Hut he published his first book  (25 Poems, 3 Recipes and 32 Other Suggestions) and became resident poet on Charlie Brooker’s Screenwipe and Newswipe. Now he's back with The Slutcracker: a meatier show combining poetry with experimental films, high-drama, yelling and music.

Key's act, combining very short poems with a comical, uptight stage persona is uniquely hilarious. It's no good us trying to explain why - you just have to see it for yourself.
