SAST regularly performs programmes in Ayr, Cumbernauld, Glasgow and beyond – giving audiences the chance to enjoy a magical mix of comedy, drama and thought-provoking themes in their local community.

Tom Brogan, co-founder of Short Attention Span Theatre, said, "We're delighted to be hosting a fundraising comedy night, which will feature a fantastic line-up for just £10 a ticket.

"It's a chance to enjoy a great night-out while supporting grassroots theatre. Please come along."

Mick has been entertaining audiences across Scotland with his stories about being a bald man in his mid-30s, while giving the world a glimpse into how that big round head of his works.
