This Road Has Tolls - T1348739716

"Another year, another lap around the world for this tetherless vagabond. When people ask me what it's like, living a life on the road, I tell them, it's a wonderful way to spend your mid-20s, while my driver's license ruefully reminds me that I'm in my late 30s. I don't regret my decisions but I will say that even Google Maps will warn you, when you type my average year's travel into their engine, that This Road has Tolls." A whole bunch of fresh tales from this comedic nomad as he continues to be a truly international comedian are guaranteed to be hilarious and leave you looking at your own travel experiences in a whole new light.

No Lands Man - T0735878209

Picture this. The year is 2008. A delighted Wool has been nominated for the Chortle 'Best Headliner' award along with Jim Jefferies, Michael McIntyre, and Rhod Gilbert. Drunkenly crawling off a flight from Shanghai, he goes directly to the ceremony and loses.... to Michael McIntyre. After spending all night at the bar and vomiting on the bar, the floor, the walls and the stairs of the beautiful function space, Glenn decides he’s had enough. Literally and spiritually he goes home. Back in North America he stops drinking and starts again, then stops again, ad nauseum. Who knows where Glenn would be if he'd stayed in the UK with those other fairly successful chaps from that nominee list? Impossible to know. However, what we do know is where he’s been after that. For the last three years Glenn has been travelling the world from Ireland to Australia, via India, NZ, Singapore, HK, China, Holland, Dubai, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi, America, Canada, Indonesia, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Malaysia, cracking jokes, getting in scrapes with Indonesian customs officers, watching beavers, seeing ufos in Manhattan, visiting the Creation Museum in Kentucky and everything in between. A pioneer of the world circuit and with no fixed abode, this show will let you peep through the window into a life jam packed with experiences, distilled to perfection and poured into a laughter packed hour of straight up honest stand up comedy.

Let Your Hands Go - T0737601919

Late at night Glenn is drunk, alone, in his north London flat when the call from his ex girlfriend comes in. She’s drunk and lonely too. He knows he shouldn’t. They’ve broken up and he’s leaving for L.A. in a month. Once more for old time’s sake? Now he waits for an inordinate amount of time wondering where she went. Is this a joke? Why would someone call then not come? In the last year Glenn has travelled the world more extensively than ever before. From meaningless sex with audience members, to helping mother with chores at Christmas time in the frosty climbs of Canada. There has been quite a duality to Glenn’s behaviour. These episodes and everything betwixt is covered in this journey of modern day heterosexuality. All the feelings one feels between the late night call for sex and the subsequent arrival in an honest, frank but never less than brilliant and hilarious account of this strangest of years for him.

Promises Promises - T913121161

Promises Promises....Everyone makes them, no one keeps them. Wool will talk about them for an hour - or will he? In Promises Promises Glenn examines his true identity. He promised to always remain Canadian, but after ten years of living abroad is he English? Or is he Canaglish or Engaydian? Glenn has promised to pay his mortgage on time, he’s promised to learn to drink like an adult and he undertook the biggest promise of them all - he got married.

Glenn will forgo the use of a laptop or a projector and allow the audience to make the images of what he's talking about Inside Their Own Heads! It's a show about the location of hell.
