Aidan Jones: Chopin’s Nocturne
Wed 14 Oct • 8pm • Admission £15 • Comedy
I grew up playing classical piano, but failed my conservatory audition at 18.
After some time focusing on MDMA, I started stand-up in 2011. During the pandemic I came back to the piano and now I’ve combined them.
It’s my favourite piece, Chopin’s Nocturne in Eb Major, presented with jokes by a bald, Australian d*ckhead with a beard.
