An  evening of satirical soliloquy, rock-n-roll reverie is promised, when  BBC 6 Music & Radio 4 regular  Murray Lachlan Young presents his stunning new live up-close and personal show at Halton Borough Council’s Brindley Theatre on Saturday 21 October.

The show is described a delightful romp into the bizarre facets of fame, fashion, people, politics, a mild erotic folk ballad and the space-time continuum. This is unique stand up comedy/spoken word performance, from one of the very best in the business.

Always topical, his show effortlessly addresses  the way we live and our trying to make sense of society .

Murray is a playwright, actor, screen-writer and poet -extraodinaire. Celebrated for his hybrid mix of stand-up comedy with delightful commentaries on contemporary life, expect flamboyant, punchy wit, brooding subtext and empathetic humour.

Fresh from festival appearances this year at Latitude, Glastonbury, Womad, Beautiful Days, Wychwood, Port Eliot and Ways With Words Dartington, Murray  draws and performs material from his new hardback collection How Freakin’ Zeitgeist Are You?

Along with much loved live favourites from BBC Radio 4 . Murray  has also most recently co-written the screenplay for the latest  film version of the Dylan Thomas classic ‘Under Milk Wood’ .

Making his name in rock clubs and underground cabaret venues in London in the 1990s he signed to EMI in 1997 releasing the album Vice and Verse.

No stranger to the big screen, Murray has appeared in ‘About A Boy’, ‘Vatel’ and ‘Plunkett & Maclaine.’ His  first stage play, ‘The Incomers’, toured nationally to great acclaim.

A man whose performance clips have notched up over 250,000 hits on YouTube and known for his numerous appearances and residencies on BBC Radio 2 Arts Show , Radio 4’s Saturday Live, BBC Test Match Special and The Shipping Forecast and even on Newsnight..
