Summary
HUGE NEWS: I'M GOING ON TOUR!
I'm heading on my first UK tour in nearly a decade with Canary. As the miners scrambled to safety, they’d try to grab the dead canary and then immediately revive it with pure oxygen, condemning it to a constant loop of singing, panicking, dying and then singing again.
Which is a tiny bit like medicating your chronic dread by making people laugh about the climate crisis*
*As certified by The TImes: "The funny side of climate change… No, really!"

| 0:00.0 | Hello, team, Stu here. I am going on tour and to Edinburgh, and I've sort of alluded to this a lot |
| 0:24.8 | previously, but I haven't, this is me officially launching it. The show is called Canary. It's another |
| 0:31.8 | climate comedy show. It's my best show yet. I did it last night at Chops and me initiated a preview together. |
| 0:40.1 | And despite the fact it was the hottest day of the year, which lent the whole climate |
| 0:44.2 | comedy proceedings, a certain sweaty piquancy. It was an absolute banger. Thank you to everyone |
| 0:51.0 | that came to that. And I'm so excited to tell you, I'm taking the show on tour. |
| 0:55.8 | I'm doing work in progress shows. I've got shows coming up before August, exit a comedy festival. |
| 1:00.7 | I've got a comedy crate in Northampton, Guilford, London, Shrewsbury and Swindon Comedy Festival as well. |
| 1:06.7 | And then I'm at the Edinburgh Festival for the last two weeks of August. I'm just doing the |
| 1:11.1 | second half, like some sort of smooth operator, basically, because I can't imagine taking a |
| 1:16.3 | month-long bite out of my children's school holidays for the foreseeable. But we're doing the |
| 1:21.1 | second two weeks. It's going to be at Monkey Barrel, at Cabaret Voltaire at 1245pm. I absolutely |
| 1:26.6 | cannot wait. And then a national tour in the autumn. On tour, |
| 1:31.6 | I'm going to my favourite places on tour, Cambridge, Glasgow, Oxford, Manchester, Cardiff, Maidenhead, |
| 1:36.8 | Sheffield and Birmingham. And then I'm finishing the tour with my biggest ever show yet. It's |
| 1:42.1 | going to be Bristol Old Vic in the main house where the big kids go. |
| 1:45.9 | It's like 500 tickets, which is more than I've ever sold for one gig before, but I'm feeling pretty, |
| 1:51.4 | I'm feeling pretty something about it. I think it is confidence. I do feel confident. It's a big |
| 1:56.9 | old mission. And let's, why don't we observe, Stuart observers can observe over the next few |
| 2:02.7 | months whether I start sounding desperate or not, but I feel like in Bristol I can do it. And so |
| 2:08.6 | that's going to be a big old show. I haven't quite worked out yet what I'm doing in terms of |
| 2:12.9 | support. Normally what I would do on tour is run the next show in like the art, do the tour |
