Philosophical stand-up Ahir Shah combines questing polemic with hella sweet gags in Machines: an hour of comedy about democracy, technology, internationalism, terrorism, history, modernity, utopia and lizards. It's both funny and good. Shah's last show, Distant, was performed to critical and popular acclaim at the 2015 Edinburgh Fringe, and subsequently toured around the UK, Paris and Australia. He is very rarely on television or radio, which is a shame really. The venue is centrally located. The show is free. Nice. ‘Passionate, poetic, powerfully funny’ **** (List). ‘A potent and articulate comic voice’ **** (Scotsman). ‘Excellent’ **** (Guardian).

Reviews
An hour in the company of Ahir Shah will make you feel smarter, like you’ve read several books on social science in one intense mind-scrambling session.
