<p data-pm-slice="1 1 []">In a bullet train of thought experiments, cult comedy favourite Laura Davis delivers a show about the kinds of things that can happen to us, just in the nick of time. SWAG is a rapid-fire, uproarious expedition from wherever it was we expected to be, to the very heart of everything else. Well, practically. 'Laura Davis is without a doubt one of the best comedians at Comedy Festival year after year. Back-to-back nominations for Most Outstanding Show in 2022 and 2023 were clearly well earned.' Scenestr 'A hundred colourful, delicate mind ribbons are unspooled and then somehow tied together in a finale that beggars belief. Warms the soul also. I can't imagine a comedy show that ends on a more hopeful, life affirming note. What Davis achieves, year in year out, goes beyond stand-up. It is artful, philosophical, self-aware, rational and exuberant.' British Comedy Guide 'Impossible not to laugh.' Herald Sun 'A highlight of any comedy festival.' Chortle (UK) 'Comedy at it's finest.'
