Scott Bennett: Blood Sugar Baby

One family, one condition, one hell of a hairy baby…  Scott Bennett from Live at the Apollo, The Royal Variety Performance and The News Quiz tells the amazing true story of how his daughter fell ill with a rare genetic condition, congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI). Never heard of it?  Neither had Scott and Jemma.
Yes, it’s a story about an ill baby, but it’s a very funny one with a happy ending, as new parents Scott and Jemma fight to get the right diagnosis for their daughter and are plunged into months of bewildering treatment, sleepless nights, celebrity encounters and bizarre side effects.

‘What’s so rare and satisfying is how all the jokes go hand in hand with the seriousness of the situation. It’s a wonderfully hopeful, often hilarious show from a properly funny man’ The Times

‘Fabulous turn of phrase, superb character creations‘ Chortle

‘Stardom is surely just one punchline away‘ Evening Standard

'Beautifully written and funny in all the right places. Brilliant' Jim Hansen

'Genuinely hilarious and heartwarming, reminding us of the power of being able to make light of bad situations' George Couch

'An engaging, heartfelt and emotional journey, turned into a comedy masterclass' Mike Pierrepoint
