Want to find peace of mind but can’t be arsed to get up early for yoga? Would rather be in the pub than chanting naked up a mountain? Too tired for a spiritual journey? Then come to this show and have it all done for you by mindlessness hipster guru Arthur Smith.
We’ve given mindfulness meditation a couple of attempts but fallen asleep having paid for the classes, so were intrigued about the world premier of ‘Mindlessness for Beginners’ by stand-up comic Arthur Smith.
This intimate venue is one of few in the city where comics can perform their extended acts, so buy a ticket to make sure it becomes a regular occurrence – because there’s more to stand-up than John Bishop at the Echo.
Following Arthur there’s a break where you can replenish with tea/vodka and are invited to return for Funny Looking Live; an extension of the two live shows seen as part of the Liverpool Comedy Festival, expect conversation, call-ins and nonsense deluxe during a live podcast.
We heard December’s act ‘As Funny as Cancer’ by Beth Vyse evoked some tears, so we’re intrigued about what else is in store. The lineup includes:
Thurs Feb 4th – Holly Burn v Kirsty K
Thurs March 3rd – Chris Coltrane: An Hour Of Tory-Smashing Comedy
Thurs April 7th – Michael J Dolan : The Most Villainous Michael J Dolan
