ALT B: Ivo Graham: Carousel work-in-progress

ALT B: Ivo Graham: Carousel work-in-progress

Ivo Graham (Taskmaster) brings a notionally more polished update of his navel-gaze-theatre-show from last year’s Fringe. Come and be moved/confused!

“Teddy told me that in Greek nostalgia literally means the pain from an old wound. It’s a twinge in your heart, far more powerful than memory alone.”

Ivo Graham, who has watched this Mad Men clip approximately 100 times, steps away from the frivolity of his stand-up and invites you onto his own carousel: around and around, backwards and forwards, to the places he aches to go again. A searingly direct, exquisitely sound tracked story of a life.
