Andy Mycock & Fiona Hutchings

Sheffield General Cemetery Trust is delighted to welcome Andy Mycock & Fiona Hutchings to the Samuel Worth Chapel for an evening of comedy and poetry.Andy Mycock's life has been punctuated by friends and strangers making comments about his unfortunate surname. Daily acts such as phoning the bank or meeting new people are both hilarious and fraught. His 'funny' surname has impacted his job (Dr Mycock), meeting a partner and even naming his pet cat.
After a string of sell-out shows across the North of England and Scotland, and a BBC Radio 4 programme, Andy is bringing his show to Huddersfield!! He presents a comedic lecture (a la Dave Gorman) about living with his surname, drawing on a lifetime of hilarious material and anecdotes. Andy also considers the British public's affection for the cock (phallic not fowl). Join him as he goes on a personal journey to learn to love Mycock.Fiona Hutchings is a writer and poet from Sheffield in South Yorkshire. writing - in part about the labels she has been given, rejected, chosen and accepted. These include being a pink haired, bisexual, working-class nerd. she is disabled in a variety of ways and has nearly as many medical acronyms as she does books and some might say a worrying brain surgery habit. She also writes about life, death, mixtapes and music..Tickets: 10.00 + Booking fee 18+Event DetailsDoors: 7.00pm
