The Bridge House – Joseph Parsons: Work In Progress
December 12 @ 7:30 pm - 10:30 pm
Joseph Parsons brings a work in progress of his upcoming national tour show to The Bridge House Theatre. An operation has transformed his life, and now Joseph Parsons is ready for a fresh start and a rebrand. In this creative twist on stand-up, Parsons blends graphic design with comedy. In a bid to change everything, Parsons wants to get fit, get healthy, be more spontaneous and has written a meticulous list on how to do that.
Renowned for his compelling high-energy storytelling, he delves into his career as a designer exploring themes of criticism, health, and self-esteem. Labelled one of the UK’s favourite homosexuals (apart from Rylan), Parsons’ vibrant brand of comedy always creates unique moments that can only be experienced live.
