Joe Wells: Daddy Autism

Close

This event has passed.

Joe and his wife are having a baby. He’s autistic so statistically it’s quite likely the baby will be too. In this new show, critically acclaimed comedian Joe Wells explores fatherhood through the lense of neurodiversity. Plus, there’s a really good joke about a parrot.

“Some of the most surprising and thought-provoking material coming from any comedian.”
The Guardian

As seen on: Rosie Jones’ Disability Comedy Extravaganza, BBC Two’s Ouch Storytelling Live and Channel 4’s Jokes Only a Neurodivergent Can Tell.
