Immigrateful is a sharp, self-aware comedy show following George, a Greek man who came to the UK to study Biochemistry… and somehow never left.

What was meant to be a short academic detour turned into a lifelong residency, stretching well beyond half his life. But why?

An award winning comedian, George unpacks the mystery: was it Britain’s famously grey weather? Its even more famously questionable food? Or something deeper, like identity, belonging, and the strange comfort of becoming a permanent outsider?

Through immigrant absurdities and brutally honest humour, Immigrateful is a hilarious exploration of what it really means to build a life somewhere you never quite planned to stay.

This performance is taking place at our sister venue, The Robin Hood, 56 St Michael's Hill, BS2 8DX
