George Rigden - Self-Inflicted
Nominee Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year 2017
Nominee Best Musical Comedy Show 2018 Leicester Comedy Festival
In 2020, George Rigden was roundly (& rightly) cancelled, & his life fell apart. In 2025, he was finally diagnosed with autism, finally sobered up – and began to put himself together again. Now, he’s ready (& sober) enough to talk (& sing) about it.
A hilarious, heart-wrenching interactive musical work in progress about the life of someone who’s been to hell through their own self-destructiveness & lived to tell the tale. (It's funnier than it sounds.)
