Would you run? Would you fight? Or would you try to make them laugh? Donald Robertson has got no mates and he isn&#8217;t funny. But with guidance from his new mentor Gary, he hopes that this is all about to change.<\/p>\n<p>This award winning show from writer\/performer Gary McNair \u00a0is in it&#8217;s fourth outing in the UK since it&#8217;s hugely successful premier at the Traverse Theatre in 2014. It&#8217;s a coming of age story that deconstructs the darker side of comedy, and sees McNair performing at his &#8216;brilliant best&#8217; (Scotsman).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reviews<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>**** The Guardian<br \/>\n**** The Times<br \/>\n**** The Financial Times<br \/>\n**** The Observer<br \/>\n**** The Telegraph<br \/>\n**** The List<br \/>\n**** The Skinny<br \/>\n**** The Herald<br \/>\n**** The Scotsman<br \/>\n***** The Stage<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"***ANNOUNCEMENT!
