Canalhouse

Tickets: £5

At the time of writing (June 23rd), I have absolutely no idea what this show will be about. But rest assured, by the time November 4th rolls around, it'll be a rigorously structured, fastidiously finessed, highbrow, erudite, thought-provoking, profound work of art. It might even be funny.

Based on where I am with it now, it'll almost certainly involve me banging on about being blind (still milking that), getting the accordion out (because I know how to whip a crowd into a frenzy), and singing a few silly songs – possibly one about a misunderstood pigeon. I might tell you about my first ever gig at a Teddy Bears' Picnic (aged five – I absolutely smashed it), talk a bit about meditation, Catholicism, and 1950s radio detectives; do some Dalek impressions; and recount the time I judged a children's talent show and things got awkward.

I might even play you a recording of a song I wrote when I was seven about a boy in our street who pissed himself.

My last show won multiple awards, so I was clearly pretty good at comedy in 2024. That means it's statistically likely this one will at least surpass mediocrity – maybe even approach adequacy!

If my scintillating sales pitch hasn't quite sealed the deal, I should probably mention that I've done stand-up on Rosie Jones's TV show, and made multiple appearances on BBC Radio 4 comedy programmes. And here are a few nice things that more successful comedians have said about me:

"David is brilliantly clever, musical, moral. Brilliant/nuts. Heartily recommend!" – Rufus Hound

"My God, David Eagle makes me laugh. A ludicrously amusing gentleman." – Miles Jupp

"David's a unique and very funny comedian. This debut hour comes highly recommended." – Paul Sinha

"Just seen the future of stand-up comedy, and his name is David Eagle." – Boothby Graffoe
