TweetOne of the best improvisers on the stand-up circuit tries to make sense of the chaos of the world. Join Ben as he squeezes the comedy juice out of everything under the sun, from hunter-gatherers to AI, XL bullies to boardgames and beyond. It'll be a bit like watching Wikipedia having a nervous breakdown. For fans of Ross Noble, Jason Byrne and heroic nonsense. “An accomplished comic.” Time Out “Perfect... the audience were hysterical.” Huffington Post

Reviews for previous Hastings Comedy Festival 2026 events
an excellent work in progress gig, Alasdair was very good explained the process and tried out his new material and it all went well, a bigger audience would have been better, but it is a small venue, but it was an intimate jig and it all went very well
