What it might be, how we can miss it and how we can find it again…

Like all those who spread mirth for a living, Mitch Benn ('the country's leading musical satirist' The Times) has been wondering if he's really making a difference, and if there is - yes - a POINT to what he - or anybody - is doing.

Well the good news is he's had a long hard think about it and he's figured it out, and he's coming back to tell us all what the POINT of comedy - and much else besides - might be…

'Song after song of exquisitely crafted satire' The Scotsman

Robin Morgan - The Spark

The comedian is back on the road with a hilarious brand new show - his biggest tour to date.

Robin has been seen on BBC2’s Mock The Week and BBC Radio 4’s The News Quiz. His previous shows have dealt with a proposal, marriage, kids and a vasectomy. So what’s next on the list? Divorce? No, not divorce. It’s about how to keep the spark alive. Not just in a marriage, but also in yourself?

Robin’s been a busy bee since the last tour. He created and hosts topical comedy panel show What Just Happened? for BBC Radio Wales; he’s supported Adam Kay and Sophie McCartney on their nationwide tours; and has written for shows such as Have I Got News For You, The Weakest Link and Bake Off: The Professionals.

He's also become somewhat of a favourite on BBC Radio 4's The News Quiz, in an episode so popular that even the government complained about it.

Robin’s shows have always been about others. Now it’s time to focus on himself.

'Bloody funny, well-written, hard-working stand-up from a massively likeable performer who must surely be on the verge of nationwide fame' Chortle

'An hour of belly-hurting chortles' ★★★★★ Mumble Comedy

Age Guidance: 14+ years.

Presented by Little Wander in association with Sophie Chapman Talent.
