Richard Herring
Talking Cock – The Second Coming


Archived show
This show is from a previous year's festival
An object of shame and pride; inspiring laughter and fear; a symbol of power, yet incredibly fragile; it creates life, it can condemn us to death… and it can do wees too. Herring updates the hit show that exposes the truth about the porridge gun.
How can one tiny flap of sponge and sinew be all these things?
Richard Herring intends to find out in this tenth anniversary update of the critically acclaimed show that exposes the truth about men and their flutes of love.
Sell-out at the Edinburgh Fringe 2002 and Melbourne Comedy Festival 2003, translated and performed in over a dozen European countries, published as a book by Ebury press.
“Man’s answer to the Vagina Monologues” Guardian
“An impassioned and thoughtful disquisition on masculinity, cultural identity and sexual anthropology… but there are still loads of jokes about porridge guns.” Observer
“His Cock is as funny and fascinating for women as it is for men. I loved it. I only wished it could have been longer” Scotsman
This show will be around two hours long with an interval, and is due to finish at 12:15am.
This show is for over 18’s only and I.D may be asked for.
