Life Learnings of a Nonsensical Human

Komedia 44-47 Gardner Street, Brighton

Life Learnings of a Nonsensical Human - This is an ode to friendship, queerness and raving. To the kindness of strangers, the heart-break of loss, and finding joy again amidst grief.

Spoken word theatre in a debut one woman show that gleefully jumps from one subject to another in the way only an ADHD brain can. A series of poetic windows into the life and mind of Jenny Foulds, from growing up in the 90s, coming out and raves; to losing a parent, grief and finding the ability to find pockets of joy again.

Desiree brings both childlike wonder and crone-like wit to the experiences of losing sleep, relevance, knee cartilage, oestrogen, youth, and illusions in a laugh-packed hour that celebrates the fury and freedom found when you’ve accepted that time has ruined your plans, but roll up your sleeves to fight it anyway. Desiree Burch is an American comedian who has appeared across the UK’s biggest comedy shows, including Taskmaster, The Mash Report, Live At The Apollo, Travelman, The Last Leg, QI, and more. She’s also the wisecracking narrator of Netflix's iconic guilty pleasure Too Hot to Handle. ‘That Desiree Burch can have audiences of all demographics howling over something many would struggle to define is testament […]
