Another Heartbreaking But Ultimately Life-Affirming Show About Death

Sanderson Jones lost his mother at the age of 10 and has been thinking about death ever since. His comedy show attempts to break down the fear and worry around death to produce a happier outlook on life. In this he utterly fails. The audience was left greatly dissatisfied. He underestimated everyone’s intelligence with his philosophies on the subject being nothing new despite his happy go lucky approach. The poor explanation of his ideas took up most of the show, where comedy would have been expected making it felt like an afternoon at elderly relatives who feign looking on the bright side of death.Sanderson does have some good jokes and a sense of humour up his sleeves but after the original shock laughs faded, he was dying on-stage to the point where he acknowledged failure. As this was mostly a scripted act either he had a bad day or he apologises at the end of most performances. This show was not heart-warming, certainly not life affirming, but Sanderson still has the ability to provoke some laughter.

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

Theatre MAD
The Make A Difference Trust fights HIV & AIDS one stage at a time. Their UK and International grant-making strategy is based on five criteria that raise awareness, educate, and provide care and support for the most vulnerable in society. A host of fundraising events, including Bucket Collections, Late Night Cabarets, West End Eurovision, West End Bares and A West End Christmas continue to raise funds for projects both in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
