ThreeWeeks and Me: Eric's Laws of the Land

Eric’s Laws Of The Land

Eric

Departing from his usual sea-themed tales, Laws of the Land is the result of several things about our culture niggling away at Eric’s patience. The premise of the show is this: what isn’t a law but should be? He invites you to sign the petition for his solutions, which include passing laws on obesity, stone-cladding, toilet seat angles and radio DJ vocabulary to make the world better. Using multimedia to illustrate his arguments, this feels more like a presentation than a routine, yet it seems unrehearsed and natural enough to be absorbing. The rough-round-the-edges approach puts you at ease; his slapdash style makes for refreshingly honest chat that is inoffensive, witty and will have you nodding your head in agreement.

Just The Tonic at The Caves, 5 - 29 Aug (not 17), 6.00pm (7.00pm), £4.00 - £5.00, fpp59
