Stand-up comedy show by Adam Rowe, host of the 'Have A Word' podcast, at The Alexandra Theatre.
Adam Rowe brings his new hour of stand-up, Fashionism, to The Alexandra on Sunday 29 November. If you've come across him through the podcast circuit, this is the live version: a full hour on stage at the Alex, with Rowe as the sole act of the night.
The show centres on a single, rather specific premise: Rowe's attempt to see and understand everyone's point of view, including the people he despises. It's that tension that carries the set, mixing his usual wit with a provocative look at perspectives that can be difficult to grasp. It's not just a series of jokes; there's a clear thread running through it, and the title Fashionism points towards that focus on how we see and categorise one another.
For those who don't know him, Rowe is a Scouser and a Chortle Award winner, and he's the host of the Have A Word podcast, which has become a regular fixture for anyone who follows the UK comedy scene. He first made a name for himself at the Edinburgh Festival, where he won 'Funniest Joke At The Fringe' in 2018, and since then he's been a regular on BBC Radio and on the podcast circuit, following the success of Have A Word and an appearance on Live At The Apollo. Fashionism is his latest hour, and it's the one he's taking on the road.
