A stellar night of sharp satire and sci-fi silliness! Political powerhouse Matt Forde returns with his most personal show yet, finding "laugh-a-minute" positivity despite the chaos of Westminster. He’s paired with the "just perfect" Anna Leong Brophy, who joyfully deconstructs the male gaze and aging through a lens of sexy sci-fi.
In his biggest live tour to date leading political comedian Matt Forde (The Royal Variety Performance, Spitting Image, HIGNFY, British Scandal) finds positivity in life despite all the evidence to the contrary in politics and his own health.
“The most topically incisive impersonator on the block… It’s laugh-a-minute stuff, underpinned by the kind of wisdom and natural resilience our leaders could learn from. He was always impressive, but he deserves his inevitable standing-ovation as never before”

“A first-class comic” THE GUARDIAN
Sure, Anna was born the old-fashioned way – a supreme being deposited into a perfect female body who immediately falls for the first man she sees.
But what's next for a sci-fi hottie once she's saved the world, done the laundry and the years have rolled on by? Anna Leong Brophy (How to Train Your Dragon, Shadow and Bone, one half of sketch duo EGG) joyfully frolics through the male gaze (yum), aging (gross) and sexy, sexy sci-fi, all while covered in goo.
