I’m 36, I’m a comedian, and I’m about to kill my boyfriend…
From the Olivier Award-winning producers of Fleabag and Baby Reindeer comes this blisteringly funny and unnervingly honest dark comedy by Marcelo Dos Santos (Backstairs Billy).
A perpetually single, professionally neurotic stand-up finally meets his Mr. Right—and then does absolutely everything wrong. But is Mr. Right all he seems? And how far will this comedian go for the sake of a killer punchline?
With razor-sharp wit and aching vulnerability, Feeling Afraid as if Something Terrible is Going to Happen dives headfirst into modern love, ego, and the fine art of self-sabotage. Hilarity and heartbreak collide in a whip-smart, one-man confessional about intimacy, insecurity, and the danger of getting exactly what you think you want.
“The gag-count is ridiculously high… Catch it, before everyone else does.” – The Telegraph
“…funny while being uncomfortably real, sometimes devastating, and consistently entertaining.” – Salterton Arts Review
