Britain's What's On Event Guide
Robin Ince & friends
Comedy & poetry night with Robin Ince, Other Theresa and Steve McLean
Robin Ince is many things. A comedian, an author, a broadcaster and a populariser of scientific ideas. The Guardian once declared him a ‘becardiganed polymath’ which seems about right. He is probably best known as the co-host of the Sony Gold Award winning BBC Radio 4 series The Infinite Monkey Cage with Professor Brian Cox. robinince.com
'Other' Theresa was born in 2001 at the Poetry Cafe in Covent Garden. This moniker (sorry Monica) was devised in response to cliched jokes ('Mother Teresa'; 'Teresa Green), a distaste for labels - and the desire to confuse market researchers (Other - please state...). Sharper than Lorena Bobbit's best steak knife. othertheresa.com
Steve McLean is a Londonised Scottish stand-up and former performance poet who switched to comedy after discovering there was laughter in the things he said between his verses. Riotous fun, oddly hysterical, and completely unexpected. facebook.com/SteveMcLeanComedy
