A live book reading and discussion from 2 neurodivergent comedians; Abigoliah Schamaun (ADHD) and Joe Wells (autistic). Expect cluttered kitchen counters, awkward coworker interactions, trespassing, cheese stealing, tears in the Austrian Alps, burned carpets, mayonnaise, plaque covered teeth, Duck à l'Orange, party poppers and much more as we share some of our favourite "Neurodivergent Moments" – moments in our lives when our brain has acted in an unconventional way. Neurotypicals welcome too.
"I loved this book! It's very funny, disarmingly honest, and full of heart. Enjoy both insight and validation via the brilliantly wired minds of two top comedians." - Shappi Khorsandi author of Scatter Brain
"Charming, moving, funny stories from the lives of two talented neurodivergent artists. Highly relatable if you're neuro-atypical. Eye opening & empathy building for everyone else." - Deborah Frances-White
"A fantastic introduction to what it's like to beneurodivergent: funny; interesting; and free from the preconceptions and clichethat have built up around the subject." - Frankie Boyle
AGE RECOMMENDATION: 15+
Presented by NCF Comedy as part of The Nottingham Comedy Festival
