Jason Cook : Joy
"A total triumph" - The List
Selling out a run of dates is impressive, even more so in the Edinburgh festival, where competition is fierce and the fringe itself announced that ticket sales were down 10 percent from last year. But for Jason? He had to put on an extra show to meet with demand.
The sheer volume of people returning from last years show was immense. Due to Jason's conversational style and ability to improvise with an audience while keeping the narrative moving, every show is unique and many punters were taking him to one side to say "I was at the show last year where you thought the guys son was his wife", or "I was at the one your dad came to"
Last year’s tour had to be extended due the overwhelming demand including a three night sold out run at Soho Theatre.
So look out World, he’s back. And this time, he’s very happy indeed.
