Ben Pope ('total delight' **** - Fest) is a bookseller by day and a stand-up comedian by night. 

Come and join him as he stress-tests a new hour of book-flavoured jokes. There’ll be stuff about Where’s Wally?, airport thrillers, Dr Seuss, performative male readers, and Sylvia Plath’s bloody fig tree. Maybe he'll even read some bits of a book he's writing. 

If you consider yourself a reader: this show is for you! If you don’t - well, I hate to break it to you, but you’re reading RIGHT NOW. I’ll see you there. 

'Pope is superb company' **** - Evening Standard

'Beautifully constructed' **** - The Scotsman

'Could an audience with the actual Pope offer as much?' **** - The Telegraph

● Doors 17:00
