What's On Friday 3rd December in Bristol

Events on Friday 3rd December

“In these times of health emergency, economic collapse, populist anger and ecological threat, societies are forced to turn inward in search of protection. Neoliberalism, the ideology that presided over decades of market globalisation, is on trial, while state intervention is making a spectacular comeback amid lockdowns, mass vaccination programmes, deficit spending and climate planning. This is the Great Recoil, the era when the neo-statist endopolitics of national sovereignty, economic protection and democratic control overrides the neoliberal exopolitics of free markets, labour flexibility and business opportunity.”

“A highly recommended comedy about humanity and real life in the UK, although contemporary events globally echo and chime profoundly in this smart but lighthearted story. In the light of the recent happenings around the world, the film, which is set in London, cleverly discusses race in it's comedic narrative. On The Other Foot tells the story of London cab diver Billy Pitcher, an out-and-out racist who's suddenly forced to re-examine his views in dramatic fashion.”

“This is one of our two Friday weekend shows! Running weekly each week we'll host an early and a late show jam packed with names from the UK comedy circuit at the top of their game. Hosted each week by either Greg Winfield or Burt Williamson, if you come for a good time know that we will absolutely deliver it.”
