Dan Mitchell - Free Egg (2 stars)

This listing is from a previous year.  Search for current listings.

When comedian Dan Mitchell is ill (proper ill, mind), nothing is right. The bed is too lumpy, the duvet is too hot and there's a seagull outside his window playing mind games. He wants nothing more than to lie back watching squirrel movies, getting his brow mopped. But Dan's internet is down and his brow remains unmopped, meaning he only has his imagination to entertain himself.

Phil McIntyre Entertainments by arrangement with MIG Management.
