An antidote to the manosphere (with music)

With over 70 millions views across his digital platforms, Will Sebag-Montefiore brings his sharp musical, comedic and satirical prowess to the tangible realm of the stage.

An hour of stand-up, music, characters and impressions all about the worst people on social media which asks the question: “do I need a hair transplant?” and “why IS my name in the Epstein Files so many times?”

Will Sebag-Montefiore is an actor and comedian you may have heard alongside Olivia Colman in the 2024 remake of Green Wing or in BBC Radio 4‘s sketch show POV.

He is a regular guest on Rosie Holt’s Noncensored podcast, was murdered in Endeavour (ITV), has performed Shakespeare alongside Mark Rylance in Westminster Abbey with Shakespeare’s Globe and won Most Valued Player at a Primary School Football camp in 2001 (he was bad at football but people quite liked him).

His satirical videos have been shared by the likes of Adrian Lester, Owen Jones, Dermot O’Leary, Dawn Butler MP, Lorraine Kelly and, unfortunately, Joey Barton. Will is deeply ashamed of that last one but, look, a retweet’s a retweet.
