New Directions - Cooper Robson: Gobshite

In 2008 A Spike Milligan anthology and the tiny book of Che Guevara sat beneath a Christmas tree. At this moment, a little left-wing left-field loudmouth was born. 

Cooper Robson is a gobshite from Heaton.

Hellbent on honing his self proclaimed style of 'whimsical bastardry' Cooper will potentially eat a grissini bread stick before your very eyes 

This show will feature aerial acrobatics, pyrotechnics, him from JLS doing backflips, real fish and multiple lies. 

Cooper (me, in the third person) solemnly swears that for each ticket sold he will bring one litre of gravy to the gig. Let's fill a paddling pool. Let's wrestle. 

Love and kisses,

Coopsie xoxo
