The Tiny Kings of Winter – Tour 2022

Glenn Wool aims his mind’s eye back over the last 4 years of tumultuous change, dredging laughs from memories as he contemplates the sheer speed in which it all shifted into something so different. He burned his party lifestyle to the ground and from the ashes emerged a phoenix of personal responsibility that includes a wife, two kids and a nice little house in the countryside.

It’s an hour of unsettling stories about settling down. Growing up, growing out, and dropping off (kids at school), getting older dumber and wiser in equal measures.

He moved to London in 1998 and quickly became one of the rising stars of the London and international comedy circuit before becoming a globally recognised name having performed in Australia, New Zealand, The USA, South Africa, Switzerland, France, Croatia, The Netherlands and Arabia. Glenn was nominated for Best International Stand Up at The New Zealand Comedy Awards and twice Best Headliner at the Chortle Awards.

“Seeing Glenn Wool perform should be made compulsory for the melancholy. There’s no way you won’t feel a bit better about the world afterwards. Lethally funny” ★★★★

Metro

"A masterpiece of comedy which has the audience helpless with laughter. I genuinely think this is one of the best hours of comedy I have ever seen. Why aren't you in a queue somewhere buying a ticket?” ★★★★★

The Scotsman

“Effortlessly funny with affability other comedians can only dream of”

The Guardian

“Imaginatively funny and original, Wool sets the standards at the Fringe”
