This show is from a previous year's festival

‘The Talk Show’ is a comedy/theatre/spoken word show about talking by writer and performer Rob Auton. Following on from his shows about hair, sleep, water, faces, the sky and the colour yellow, Rob now turns his attention to talking because he is ready to talk about talking. The Talk Show was the second best reviewed comedy show at the Edinburgh Festival 2018 but I am aware the people who go to Mach do not give one about stuff like that and rightly so. I still want to try to get people to come though. Difficult isn’t it.

“Just sad.” Vanessa Feltz

“Funny, poetic, observant and wholly original. Auton’s brilliant use of language and
perfect comic timing throws up laugh after laugh.’ ***** Beyond the Joke

“A genuine original. Poetical, philosophical, humane, completely charming and funny to
boot.” The Guardian

“Charming, eccentric and uplifting, Auton is a talent to watch.” The Independent

“One of my absolute favourites” Daniel Kitson

Restoration Levy – £1.50 of the advertised on-sale ticket price goes to Machynlleth Comedy Festival for the continued development and improvement of the event.
