´óÏó´«Ã½

Stylistically fresh-sounding, provocative, unorthodox comedy and debate for the open-minded that firmly ticks the box marked ‘thinking outside of other boxes'.

Unsafe Space embraces diversity – especially diversity of opinion across the socio-economic divide. It's a brand new format where comedy meets thought-provoking debate and discussion.

This week, Simon Evans talks to Suha Yassin of education body Pearson Edexcel about poetry and 'woke' changes to the curriculum, with comedy from Alice Marshall (as Titania McGrath), Jake Yapp, Andy Field, Miranda Kane, and Larry and Paul. Meanwhile Andrew Doyle tackles free speech in universities with lawyer Helen Dale, and we set one of Richard Littlejohn's angry newspaper columns to music.

With thanks to Andy Shaw and Comedy Unleashed.
