Very excited to be bringing the comedic lecture ‘Chief Petty Officer’ to Lancaster Comedy Festival next month. Presenting the very scientific formula for the perfect petty act, comedian Vix Leyton looks at spite as strategy, exploring the small, stubborn, gloriously acts that have shaped history, politics and everyday life. From colonial governors starting wars over chairs they weren’t allowed to sit on, to revolutions powered by tea, salt and spreadsheets, and modern protest driven by empty seats. This is a sharp, funny comedy lecture for anyone who likes Radio 4, irreverent history, seeing people get what they deserve AND @50cent - he’ll love this.Smart, irreverent and quietly political, Chief Petty Officer blends stand-up, true historical stories and modern culture to argue that pettiness isn’t a glitch in the system - it’s often the petrol that’s driven pop culture and history forward, for better or worse.
