“Have We Met?”—The Astor Theatre

September 27 @ 7:00 pm10:00 pm

Completing the trilogy that began with Genius 2.0 and The Work Of The DevilHave We Met? finds Simon Evans standing, like Ulysses in Tennyson’s famous verse, gazing out over the moaning deep and the twinkling rocks and wondering whether to seek a newer world? To smite the sounding furrows? To strive, to seek, to find? Or whether in fact, to put the kettle on, crack open the Hobnobs and simply… yield?

Drawing on Joyce, Proust and the Decline and Fall of Philip Schofield to make sense of his own tangled past and possible future, Evans skilfully weaves comedy, pathos and narrowly averted cancellation into an unforgettable two hours of unique entertainment.

“A typically amazing show… Masterful really. There’s no one quite like him”

—Dan Jackson @northumbriana

“Hi Simon, just wanted to say thank you for a great show in Chippenham last night. Hilarious, very clever and at times a bit emotional but very very entertaining. I will refer to her as Hilly Wollougby for ever more!”

—Mark Durham @markdur74
