2014 Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee Liam Williams follows his widely acclaimed debut with a show about money. A self-reflective introduction to British comedy’s bright young thinker, Williams’ debut was a down-beat promenade through casted optimisms, and personal shortcomings. Following two sold-out London runs, a UK tour, critical acclaim, an Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Newcomer and Edinburgh Comedy Award nomination, Williams returns…If you like television he’s done a few things for that: Russell Howard’s Good News, Comedy Central at the Comedy Store, something for Channel 4. And if you’re old, he’s been on BBC Radio 4, like, three times.

“Extraordinary, a shatteringly funny set from a comic who’s not ashamed to take the business of being alive seriously.” ✭✭✭✭✭ THE GUARDIAN

“Williams now sounds like the voice of a generation.” ✭✭✭✭ THE INDEPENDENT

“Liam Williams’s exceptional new show, delivered with marvellous moroseness, also fizzes with wit, intelligence and eloquence” ✭✭✭✭ THE TELEGRAPH

“A clever and unique performer.” ✭✭✭✭ TIME OUT

“His is a captivating worldview which confronts his audience and the whole notion of stand-up.” ✭✭✭✭ THE LIST

“If Stewart Lee were to announce his retirement tomorrow then Liam Williams would surely be his heir.” ✭✭✭✭ LONDON IS FUNNY”The most exciting act from this year’s Edinburgh Fringe” THE GUARDIAN

“A beautifully crafted, downbeat narrative… Every elegiac word has been polished until it sings” ✭✭✭✭✭ METRO
