Storyline

James Acaster explores his love/hate relationship with standup by relinquishing control of his set and accepting a healthy dose of audience interference – AKA heckling. With his wiry observational eye and incomparable wit, Acaster shares hilarious on-the-fly meta-analysis of his own material, along with stories from his childhood that spurred him to pursue a career in comedy.
