Life as a disabled transgender comedian is- well, good for a laugh at least, so-
Pull up a chair and take a seat for this stand-up show about sitting down!
Part comedy set and part ethically dubious experiment, watch as Arthur races against the clock, competes with gravity, barrels through pain, and nurtures a love-hate situationship with- well, you.
On a journey through one upmanship, stand upmanship, and absolutely nothing to do with penmanship, Arthur helpfully details it all, the awkward, the embarrassing, and the baffling – How often can you answer every question with ‘shark attack’ before people get suspicious? How do you navigate a custody battle for a wheelchair? And how do you choose a public bathroom if they’re all applicable?
Together, accumulate points, penalties, or prizes, and participate in a potential downfall, as the decision looms-
Sit Down, or Stand Up?
(Well, lets put it to a vote, shall we?)
Fun, flashy, and full of adrenaline, Stand Up (Comedy) asks questions of disability, endurance, pity, power, pain, and pride, but most of all-
What will you choose?
The vote must be unanimous.

"Our children live in the most deprived ward in London and their parents cannot afford to pay for the classes and activities many more privileged children enjoy after school and at the weekends. A free-to-access youth group run by a local theatre in a professional setting is an incredible opportunity."
