Fresh from BBC Radio 4 (Tom Mayhew is Benefit Scum), critically acclaimed comedian Tom was planning to write a show that's less frustrated, less political... the cost of living crisis screwed that. 'It is genuine, powerful, political stuff. These are four stars for a voice that should be heard more. Four stars for comedy shining a light on some grim, unjust places.' **** (Scotsman). 'Mayhew is passionate, articulate and - above all else - hilarious. His jokes are punchy, sharp and forthcoming. Despite the often weighty subject matter, laughs are never too far apart' **** (Skinny).
