The award-winning comic brings his morose outlook on life to two shows in the region this month
BAFTA and Perrier Award-winning comic Dylan Moran returns for another round of psychedelic scathing wit and morose outlooks on modern life, as he brings his We Got This tour to Tyne Theatre & Opera House in Newcastle on Wednesday 25th and Middlesbrough Town Hall on Thursday 26th May.
No one looks at things in quite the same way as the creator of acclaimed TV series Black Books; bookstore owner Bernard shares Moran’s on stage sardonic bitterness to a worrying degree. But at long last, it seems like his perpetually bad mood is well placed to provide insightful commentary on the mess of the past couple of years. Sometimes the best way to release tension is just to rip into anything and everything that causes even the mildest of inconveniences. Brain won’t focus on a task for longer than ten minutes? Neighbour’s a pain in the posterior? Procrastination really getting you down? Maybe instead of dwelling on the myriad of disappointments that seem to make up the diverse tapestry of life, it’s time to bask in life’s small victories, like the knowledge that maybe your life isn’t the absolute worst, and someone probably has it much worse than you. We Got This promises to have you leaving the show if not feeling better, then at least feeling better than Dylan Moran does on the reg.
