About

Are all aspiring stand-up comics as tragic as Baby Reindeer? If William is anything to go by, the answer is possibly 'yes'. Nostalgic, razor-sharp and deliciously peculiar, this is a weird but wonderful comedy of manners by the award-winning author of The Tap Dance.

William is a lonely young man on the loose in the late 1960s. A disastrous appearance as a stand-up comic in a pub called The Man In The Moon is only the start of his adventures, in which he consorts with theatrical types, frenzied advertising men accident-prone lodgers.

William's exploits lead him eventually to the consulting rooms of a Harley Street psychiatrist, where his delusions that he is a comic genius can finally be laid bare.
