Ian Lane: Truuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

  • The Glitch 134 Lower Marsh London, England, SE1 7AE United Kingdom (map)

Lo-fi multimedia comedian and autistic human Ian Lane is the second fastest in the world at completing the 1999 video game Worms Armageddon. Despite this, he almost got caught in a terrorist attack in 2010 due to forgetting to run. This stand-up comedy show explores the problems with being simultaneously too fast and too slow for life, with help from over 100 hand-drawn diagrams that make full use of every setting in Microsoft PowerPoint.

Age Guidance: 15+

PREVIOUS PRAISE:
Comedy To Watch ★★★★ 'a mix of startling honesty and beautiful absurdity...a densely layered yet consistently funny set'

Disability Arts Online 'a master at narrative...his reflections and sharp asides depict autistic storytelling at its finest'

One4Review ★★★★ 'He’s got the perfect stage presence to match the kind of comedy he does (utterly self-confident; kinda kooky) and an eye for the silly and incongruous. His visual aids are exquisite works of comedic gold'

Chortle 'inventive, cliche-phobic comedy that makes a strong impression for its creativity'
