This is my new show, Touching My Active Mind. I’m leaning into all the fun stuff that makes a room feel alive. There’ll be an essay, one part that delves into the taboos of comedy, a joke that’s really wet and one prank. Also I got a revelation I wanna talk about.
I want the show to feel playful and unexpected, like we’re all in on something together. It’s comedy, but with space to muck around, be a bit janky and try things that feel fresh. If you’re coming, you’re part of the energy and we’re going to make the night feel new, fun and little bit dangerous.
'There’s a great sense that his material gradually builds in intensity and overwhelms you, which comes as a relief from washing-line shows that start and end strong while sagging in the middle.' Chortle (UK)
'Correos does not really tell jokes, but he does do almost everything else, and he does it fast and loud and with all the energy in the world. He can dance, DJ, kiss wild birds and maybe do hypnosis.' The Press
Suitable for audiences 15+
Drug references
Language – occasional coarse language
Strobe lighting
