ROB NEWMAN'S 21ST CENTURY SURVIVAL GUIDE

Hot on the heels of his new novel, INTELLIGENCE, Rob Newman's epic new standup show takes the audience on a whirlwind tour: from uncovering a secret Saxon version of the Norman Bayeux Tapestry to exploring how we retro-fit our towns and cities for the climate of the future.

How do we teach our kids to cycle on streets made for cars?
How can re-introduced beavers help lost souls?
How do we stop Bruce Springsteen's lyrics disintegrating before our very eyes?
How do we sidestep the crazy to survive another day?
… This may not be the Survival Guide anybody asked for, but it might just be the one we need.

“If this world could be saved by a Superhero whose Superpower was Comedy, that hero would be Robert Newman"
