About Humdinger Words for Lollygaggers and Fuddy-Duddies - YMCA Theatre

Former stage hypnotist, cruise-ship gameshow host and primary schoool teacher Ben Dali unleashes this unforgettable comedy-cabaret poetry party packed with sharp wordplay, visual gags and interactive set pieces.

Expect hilarious country doppelgängers, warped childhood poems, mindboggling lists, hypnotic insights and genuine improvised rhyming mentalism from this sincere yet gloriously filthy, neurodiverse wordsmith.

This unpredictable, varied thrill-ride is ideal for intellectually curious audiences who like to learn and be amazed during comedy shows that subvert genre and expectation, as much as delivering rapid-fire punchlines.
