Edward Aczel – Explains All The World’s Problems… And Then Solves Them.

Thu 25th June at 8:00pm

EDWARD ACZEL returns with a new show to save the world.

After garnering a string of four and five star reviews; performing a sell-out run and scooping the Malcolm Hardee Award at the Edinburgh Festival last year for his show Do I Really Have To Communicate With You? Aczel presents his latest impeccable shambles.

Edward Aczel – Explains All The World’s Problems… And Then Solves Them sees the “scintillatingly shambolic” (The Times) comedian using little more than a flip chart, audience input and an emergency Steve McQueen impersonation to solve such problems as the credit crunch, climate change and, crucially, stand-up comedy.

Please note there is a strict no refunds policy on problems that you feel he hasn’t solved.

"One of the most original acts in years…an hour in his company is a hilarious and uncomfortable joy"

The Guardian

“Quite how someone can be so hilarious without any actual jokes is nothing short of sheer genius”

Bruce Dessau, Evening Standard

“Downbeat, mumbly and brazenly unbothered…he’s very optional. And rather wonderful”

Dominic Maxwell, The Times

“I laughed for the whole sixty minutes. I think he is a minor comic genius”

Tim Arthur, Time Out

“If he returns like this year on year, I’ll keep on recommending him”

Jay Richardson, The Scotsman

“Aczel borders on comic genius”

The Herald

Comedy

“I first stood on a stage in July 2005 – and the rest is not particularly interesting history – very similar to a lot of other history which the vast majority of us are not particularly interested in. I am keen, at this point, to say that I invented Chocolate – but I didn’t - fortunately or unfortunately whichever way you look at it.”

Edward Aczel solves, where the modern world has consistently failed, such problems as the Credit Crunch, Climate Change and the critical issue of Stand-Up Comedy. There is a strict no refunds policy on problems that you believe he hasn't solved.
