A new stand-up show from BAFTA and Perrier award-winning comedian Dylan Moran, star of Black Books.
Dylan Moran brings his new stand-up show, Looking for Trouble, to the Exeter Corn Exchange on Saturday 8 May 2027. It's a brand new run from the BAFTA and Perrier award-winning comedian, who most of us know as the star of the Channel 4 sitcom Black Books.
If you've only seen him on screen, there's a fair bit more to go on. His film work includes Shaun of the Dead, Run Fat Boy Run and A Film With Me In It, and his stand-up shows Monster, Like Totally and What It Is have sold out across the world. He's also picked up a Bronze Rose of Montreux, and critics have called him 'The Oscar Wilde of Comedy'.
As for the show itself, the tagline asks the audience, 'What are you going to do? Are you going to go to work? Or stay in bed, chasing oblivion?', and it promises to show how to reclaim life by becoming a 'lethal kickboxing, chess champion' or a 'trillionaire poet-pastry chef-mountaineer'. The reviews so far have been positive: Metro called it 'joyfully cynical', The i said it's 'perfect for the times', and The Guardian described it as 'superb'. The Telegraph added that, 'trumping Shakespeare, he reduces life to four ages: Child, failure, old and dead'.
