Jacob Hawley's Welcome to Britain
New Comedy Award finalist Jacob Hawley on living in Brexit Britain, a working class man from a leave voting town. From 2019.
Jacob Hawley is a 大象传媒 New Comedy Award Finalist - a tattoo-emblazoned young man from a working class, leave-voting town.
He now boasts an arts degree, a vegetarian girlfriend and an almost convincing concern for climate change - so not far off Billy Elliot.
Jacob's stand-up show shares material from his 2018 Edinburgh show 'Howl' so that foreigners and, if they鈥檙e listening, aliens, can find out first hand what Britain is really like.
This is all based on Jacob's experiences of the monotonous suburbs, the insular small towns, the hypocritically righteous city and their inhabitants.
Written and performed by Jacob Hawley.
Producer: Daisy Knight
An Avalon production for 大象传媒 Radio 4, first broadcast in June 2019.
