2022 Edinburgh Fringe
Tom Ward: Anthem
Tom Ward's routines on topics such as sexuality, flatshares and mental health are all packed with jokes, and delivered with skill. The musical interludes are a lovely welcome bonus too.
Fresh from his celebrated debut on Live at the Apollo, Tom Ward returns with a brand-new construction of offbeat observations and top-notch whimsical detours. His favourite themes are all here: love, the 90s, living in a house... But this time he's venturing out beyond his beloved suburbs to take on the planet, mental health and gender politics. As seen on Live at the Apollo, The Stand Up Sketch Show, Live from the BBC, Roast Battle and has supported Jack Whitehall, Joe Lycett, Jason Manford and Sindhu Vee on tour. 'A genuinely exciting talent' ***** (Herald).
