The Secret Life of a Sleepless Anaesthetist
NHS anaesthetist, comedian and author (oooooh check him) Ed Patrick injects Henley-on-Thames with a gut-punch hilarious show about becoming a junior doctor, the NHS, the pitfalls of modern medicine and the power of questioning it.
There’s plenty of laughing gas to go round.
‘Brilliantly funny’ Matt Lucas
‘Extremely funny’ The Telegraph
