______________

A refreshingly honest look at modern life, and how to get out of living it.

Rhys has lived his entire life with a backdrop of dread. As a child, the sentence he feared most was 'come downstairs and say hello'. Aged five, he feigned injury to avoid dancing at a wedding, and twenty-five years later, he celebrated when the venue set on fire moments before what would've been the biggest gig of his life.

This is a guide to life from someone who doesn't want to do anything, and an exploration of why you possibly shouldn't either.

If you've ever celebrated plans being cancelled with an Andy Murray fist pump, secretly prayed for another lockdown, or tried - in vain - to control the outcome of everything you do, then welcome to the club. We close early, obviously.

You'll Like It When You Get There is at once hilarious, insightful and inspiring - even if what it's inspiring you to do is absolutely nothing.

Reviews of Rhys's stand-up:
'Scintillating stand-up' Times
'Master of the lightning-paced, gag-dense, precision-delivered' Guardian
'A superb tour de force of observational comedy, delivered with punchy, rapid-fire certainty' Chortle
