Episode 35: John Robertson

John Robertson is the closest you'll get to watching a catastrophic weather event without risk to your personal safety. Creator of award-winning show The Dark Room and a superb improv comic, John walks that knife edge of high intensity, high energy crowd work without falling into the lazy trap of biting the hand that claps. Alongside an absolute blinder of a headline set, John talks with host and MC James Ross about The Dark Room, crowd work and being a labrador or golden retriever boyfriend. CW: The execution of the Romanovs if you're still sore about it; the execution of the CEO of United Healthcare if you're sore about that at all; passing mentions of dementia; passing mentions of suicide  If you'd like to see more from John you can find his website HERE with links to The Dark Room and John Robertson Plays with the Audience - both shows touring now! On a personal note, I'd highly recommend his book The Little Town of Marrowville - it's really very good for the nerdy goth in your life. Do you want to see how much John looks like Rik Mayall?
