Comedian and presenter. Winner of So You Think You’re Funny and the BBC New Comedy Award, Tom Allen is back in Edinburgh with a new show about all the women that - for whatever reason - he has come to love. Or at least like. And always in a completely non-sexual way. Not to be mistaken for a show fit for a stag party, it comes from Tom’s position as a gay man and the curious unique brand of love that he has for the women in his life. From his first girlfriend - a brief relationship that lasted for a school trip to a Nuclear Power Station - to the flat mate obsessed with real life crime and fat people. The show takes in celebrities, historical figures, fictional characters, royalty, tramps and hookers. Each of them fabulous, strong minded and oddly fascinating. And Tom in the middle, struggling to understand who he is and how they’ve all come to be so important to him. Suitable for queers, trannies, young people, old people, straight people, straight-laced people, their friends, their families, outsiders everywhere, and, of course, your mum. Tom Allen’s most quirkily interesting, bizarrely fascinating, wonderful show to date! Tom Allen - Women! website.
