A satirical live show by comedian and political writer Cody Dahler, offering a guide to modern British politics.
Cody Dahler brings The State of This to the Theatre Royal on Wednesday 11 November, starting at 19:30. It's a live show that follows his book of the same name, and he bills it as 'A Thicky Thicky Dumb Dumb's Guide to British Politics'.
If you've come across Dahler before, you'll know the territory he works in. He's an award-winning comedian, satirist, and political writer with a straight-talking voice that's picked up over two million followers across his platforms. He's often cited as one of the most accessible figures currently making sense of modern Britain, and The State of This fits right into that. The show is a satirical look at today's identity-driven, social-media, and culture-war-fuelled political landscape — the kind of stuff that usually fills the news cycle and the comment sections in equal measure.
It's not just a monologue, either. During the performance, Dahler is joined on stage by special guest hosts who take questions from the audience, so there's a bit of a back-and-forth to the night rather than just sitting and listening. If you've read the book, this is the live version of it; if you haven't, it's a fair place to start.
