Being Billy

6 - 7 March 2025

Presented by Now or Never Productions

"Never trust a man who, when left alone with a tea cosy ….doesn't try it on" – Billy Connolly.

This show is all about celebrating the absurdities of life and embracing our individualism in a world that discourages us from standing out and being ourselves. As Billy himself would say, there's nothing worse than going through life being beige.

Through a series of entertaining (mostly true) stories and life experiences, delivered in the style of one of the most loved and beautifully absurd storytellers, Garth Russell will lift the lid on what it means to be human, and remind us why being able to laugh at ourselves is much cheaper than therapy.

Garth / Billy will take you on the ride of his life, so you can reflect on some of the craziness of yours. You'll be taken back to a time when being different was all the rage, and life was colourful and anything but beige.
