ALOK: Eat Pray Leave!

Cyprus Avenue

€27.50

Internationally, critically condemned stand-up comedian ALOK comes to Cork with their most intimate show yet: a comedy about love, heartbreak and the end times. Their therapist said stop dating projects, so they built one and are charging admission. A journey of self-discovery... and poor decision making. With razor-sharp wit, ALOK dissects desire, denial and the stories we tell ourselves to keep going. Suffering is universal. It might as well be funny.
