When it Raynes it Pours
UK Comedian Josh Rayne delivers stories about being born in Africa but growing up painfully English, his long overdue reckoning with Borderline Personality Disorder while unearthing the complexities of his father's mysterious past.
Josh interweaves agonising misadventures like moving his entire life to Australia in the middle of a manic episode with the surreal complexities of discovering his queer identity at boarding school to create a show that is as uplifting as it is gleefully chaotic.
