A new stand-up show about the joys of raising children with special needs, from the star of hit Radio 4 series ‘6.5 Children’, and author of book ‘Normal Schmormal’ published this summer. Ashley has six kids, three of whom have a SEN diagnosis. Between endless meetings, countless therapists, public humiliations, failed playdates, horrific hygiene, surreal monologues and occasional violence, it’s certainly not what anyone would call a ‘normal’ household – but would he want it any other way? Ashley distils the love, madness and chaos of his home life into a brilliant evening of stand-up for all the family. He’s just glad to be out of the house, to be honest.
