Paul Foot
Dissolve
Life is a stress: full of rushed breakfasts, angry people, internal conflict and Piers Morgan. But what happens when everything you thought was important – your problems, grievances against others, your very identity – simply disappears?
Trail-blazing comedian Paul Foot returns with his most personal, surprising and ground-breaking show ever.
In the year 2022 AD something momentous changed for Paul, and in Dissolve he reveals how he discovered the secret of life. Inevitably he does get distracted by King Tutankhamun, the House of Lords, officious lollipop ladies and what Jesus might have achieved if he’d been a plumber.
Chortle Awards Best Show nominee (2024), and (ISH) Edinburgh Comedy Awards 2023 Best Show Winner and NextUp Biggest Award in Comedy 2023 nominee.
'Funnier and more daring than I’ve ever seen him… [has] the audience laughing so hard they’re about to leave their bodies.' ★★★★★ Chortle (UK)
'A standup set that leads us into the ineffable, and dares to leave us there.' ★★★★ The Guardian (UK)
Suitable for audiences 15+
