WIPs Double-Header: Neil Harris & Julie Grady Thomas

Two works-in-progress for the price of one! It's a double-header of comedy from two of North East's hotly tipped comedians, Neil Harris and Julie Grady Thomas. 

Neil Harris: A Short History of the High Jump

Whilst wide awake one night, comedian Neil Harris found himself watching a video titled 'How One Man Changed the High Jump'. He then became obsessed with whether it really was one man. Neil takes a light-hearted look at the evolution of the high jump over time and the characters involved in the Olympics.

Julie Grady Thomas: American Scum

Julie (BBC Radio 4 Extra, Elle UK) is a citizen of the world stuck in an American’s body, and honestly it wouldn’t be so bad if that body belonged to anyone else. Anyone. Besides Ted Cruz. Because, you know… ew, Ted Cruz. Take this comically tender tour of her neuroses as she explores what it really means to be a live, living thing living life lividly.
