More details

Serial innovator Simon Munnery regarded as 'one of the funniest, most original comedians of the past twenty years' (The Guardian) endeavours to perform a selection of the existential Danish philosopher's writings, talk about them and anything else in between. A new stand-up show for this year's Edinburgh Festival by the perennial Fringe stalwart, and star of Comedy Central's Alternative Comedy Experience.

Simon Munnery's twenty-seven year career has seen him win a Sony Radio award and Chortle award (in 2012 for his conceptual restaurant La Concepta) and earn nominations for a British Comedy Award, Perrier Award, Barry Award and Golden Rose Of Montreux. He's had several of his own major television and radio projects, and most recently has featured on Comedy Central's Alternative Comedy Experience; Radio 4's The News Quiz, Dilemma; and BBC Two's The Culture Show.
