SUMMARY:NIGEL PLANER: YOUNG ONCE - A LIFE LESS HEAVY
DESCRIPTION:The Fez Comedy Club in association with Edge Street Live presents Nigel Planer in Young Once – A Life Less Heavy. \nNigel Planer\, beloved as Neil the hippy from The Young Ones and a founding figure of the 80’s alternative comedy scene\, brings his memoir Young Once to life in a warm\, sharply funny live show of storytelling. \nFrom the wild early days at The Comedy Store to the chaotic brilliance of The Comic Strip Presents\, Filthy Rich & Catflap\, and beyond – to West End musicals and hit pop records – Nigel will share a trove of outrageous tales of the backstage chaos that shaped a generation of comedy: from 20-foot-éclair-related injuries to gatecrashing raves with Robin Williams\, Top of the Pops and Band Aid\, to auditioning for a stony-faced Robert De Niro. \nAlongside the laughs\, he will reflect on the bittersweet moments behind the scenes – the friendships\, fame and rivalries\, and the winding path of a creative life. \nWoven throughout the show is a moving\, often mischievous account of the long\, on-off-on-again love story between Nigel and his wife Roberta\, and a life lived somewhere between the footlights and the fallout. \nFull of dry wit\, theatrical flair\, and a knack for finding humour in both disaster and triumph\, don’t miss the once-young Nigel as he offers a wildly entertaining and gloriously sideways glimpse into his quietly remarkable career\, in a show that is part performance\, part confession\, and all heart. \nBooks will be available for sale and for signing after the show. \nSuitable for ages 14+ \nDoors 7pm \nhttps://yourboxoffice.co.uk/the-fez-comedy-club/1309-nigel-planer-in-young-once-a-life-less-heavy?
