Description

Join Phil Green for a warm, funny and moving journey through growing up in the North, moving away, and trying to work out where you belong.

What happens when you leave home but home never quite leaves you?

Along the way there are beer adverts, the 1968 Rugby League Challenge Cup Final, under-16s disco nights at the Mecca, and a silver wedding party you’ll never forget.

Part storytelling, part social commentary, A Good Neet Aht explores the places that make us, the places we make, and the complicated business of fitting in. Beneath the laughter, what starts as a personal story becomes a sharp exploration of class, identity and belonging.

Celebratory, nostalgic, occasionally abrasive and always heartfelt, this is a brilliant evening of storytelling from an engaging performer with a comedy show like no other.

What audiences have said:

“Phil has the ability to fill your heart with joy …Reminiscent of the shiny jacketed turns in the clubs in the ‘80s with a smart contemporary edge.”

“It’s a great, beautifully moving, warm and funny show”

“There’s some wider meaning to be found in the ‘us and them’ mentality that feels very current.”

“A very clever, humorous and sophisticated social commentary that gradually reveals itself as the piece develops”

“Bloody loved it!”
