The award-winning Alasdair Beckett-King returns to this timeline with a dimension-hopping stand-up comedy show. Is a better world possible? Yes! It already exists, but you don’t live there. ABK makes the best of a bad timeline in this ramshackle jaunt through a multiverse of wonders. Also, Winston Churchill performs the best of Queen. 'A singular and truly distinct act, Alasdair Beckett-King creates his own multi-faceted world' ★★★★ (Scotsman). 'Alasdair Beckett-King is a nice man' ★★★★★ (EdFestMag). 'This is a comedy show' ★★★★ (One4Review). ★★★★ (Fest) ★★★★ (Voice) ★★★★ (Three Weeks).
