John Kearns: Tilting At Windmills will be performed at the Monkey Barrel Comedy in Edinburgh on 1 October 2026. The show is a portrayal of a 38-year-old man's life. The ticket price is available from the website. The production will feature a fragmented portrayal of life.
A fragmented, digressing portrayal of a 38-year-old man’s life, alluding to books he hasn't read, touching on the modern condition. Plus VAT! More allusive and bleak as ever, it is unreal the comedian you become. And for who? Decent craic with the right crowd. A show for those who have read about but not committed to the Guinness Nitrosurge. Seen bewildered onTaskmaster (Channel 4), terrified on Live at the Apollo (BBC), getting through Never Mind the Buzzcocks (Sky), and implicating others on his Sky stand-up special The Varnishing Days. More comfortable on pods but comes alive on stage, for your pleasure!
