Robin Ince to come to Siddington Village Hall

Occurring
for 2 hours
Venue
Siddington Village Hall
Address
Congleton Road Siddington Macclesfield Cheshire What3words: ///front.daredevil.jukebox, SK11 9JR

For this year's spring event, the committee has decided to try something different for the village - A Cheshire Rural Touring Arts (CRTA) event.
The association aims to represent a diverse programme of high-quality arts entertainment for all tastes and ages, including live theatre, literature, music and dance, in Cheshire's rural venues.
They have been fortunate enough to secure a booking for Robin Ince, who will, no doubt, be well-known to many of you.
Robin Ince, award-winning broadcaster and comedian, is best-known as the co-presenter of the multi-award-winning Radio 4 science show "The Infinite Monkey Cage". He recently wrote and presented "Writing the Universe", and a four-part solo stand-up series "Reality Tunnel". He has performed across the world from Reykjavic to Dunedin, LA to Sophia and won many awards for his shows including Time Out's outstanding achievement in comedy award. His books include "I'm a joke and so are you", "Bibliomaniac", "The Importance of Being Interested". In 2022, he won the Author of the Year from the Bookseller Association. His next book is about neurodivergence - "Normally Weird ... Weirdly Normal", followed by his first collection of poetry, "Ice cream for a Broken Tooth".
For over thirty years, Robin has entertained thousands in person and on air. But underneath the surface, a whirlwind was at play - a struggle with sadness, concentration, self-doubt and near-constant anxiety. But then he discovered he had all the hallmarks of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and his stumbling blocks became stepping stones.
His show is entitled "The Universe and Neurodiverse" and seeks to look at things a bit differently. What is being a bit weird is actually normal? What if sharing our internal struggles isn't a sign of weakness, but strength?
This promises to be an extremely entertaining evening, so do put the date in your diary and more details about tickets will follow.
