Best-selling author and social media comedy sensation Laura Belbin is coming to Bradford. Bringing her show Knee Deep in Life to The Studio, Bradford on Friday 13 October.

Laura aims to be the antidote to the sugar-coated portrayal of ‘perfect motherhood’.

In the year 2022 AD something momentous changed for Paul, in his show Dissolve, he will reveal how he discovered the secret of life on the outskirts of Lancaster. Along the way he will inevitably be distracted by King Tutankhamun, the House of Lords, Sir Cliff Richard, officious lollipop ladies and what Jesus might have achieved had he been a plumber.
