Right now I’m experiencing that great enthusiasm which comes with thoughts of a new show. In February the future looks shiny and taut of skin. Come the Edinburgh Fringe in August the future will be behind me and time will drag as rainy day stumbles into rainy day and I count the moments away until home time. But right now all seems good.
So: on Monday 25 February at a sensible time in the evening (a short while after you no doubt hear me come a convincing fourth in Just A Minute) I shall be presenting what frankly is too little to be billed as a preview of my new show CHRIS NEILL HAS A BUN IN THE OVEN (CONFESSIONS OF A FORK BENDER). Instead, think of it as a work-in-progress (that phrase combines, I feel, the lofty aspirations of an artist with the honesty that it might all be shit).
Things may be made a little perkier by Dan Tetsell also being on the bill. Not only that but it’s taking place at Lowdown At The Albany, a venue guaranteed to not only always have someone in the pub upstairs you’d be keen to shag but also the smell of sewage wafting about. What’s not to love? Also, it’s at 8pm which is great as that means you don’t need to miss Coronation Street (assuming you live near the top of Great Portland Street, London W1, that is).
See you there. Obviously.
