About This Event

Simon Evans squints at an uncertain future in Staring at the Sun, revisiting the blue-remembered hills of his youth and trying to stay human as the world around him gets smarter. With the AI singularity looming, Evans looks ahead to the coming shockwaves of technology and back to the analogue pleasures of hitch-hiking, pub bets, and getting properly lost. Sharp, intelligent stand-up as seen on Mock the Week and Live at the Apollo.
