Information for Kanan Gill - What Is This? at Southbank Centre, West End (Comedy). You and Kanan are both tired of all his existential whingeing - why are we here, what does it mean? Yuck. Who cares? How many specials can you try to dissect the fundamental nature of the human experience? Enough, right? Let's party. WHAT IS THIS? is about nothing at all. So far. But what does nothing mean? What is emptiness empty of? Are thoughts thieves in an empty house? Oh shut up dude, stop it. Queen Elizabeth Hall
