Ben Moor & Joanna Neary: BookTalkBookTalkBook

Authors Jenny Nibbingley and Burton Mastrick truly need no introduction. Their novels have long been secretly well-regarded by those in the know, but rarely bought or read by the general public. Today's event promises to be an enlightening discussion of such titles as Why Reigate?, Randoms, Hatred of Broccoli, and Only If I Have To. Tim Timminey will moderate.

Book signing afterwards. Well, that's the plan anyway. But when do things go to plan? BookTalkBookTalkBook combines an absurdist parody of awkward live author events; an exploration of artificial intelligence and the creative process; a Beckettian live theatre experience, and an experiment in the limits of patience regarding card tricks. With jokes.

Funny and wise, imaginative and original; this is a show you can't put down. Sorry, that was more of an observation than a question. BookTalkBookTalkBook was a 100% Sell Out at the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe, and has been a hit in theatres and at bookshops and literary festivals around the UK.

In 2024 the piece was performed at the world-famous Parisian bookshop, Shakespeare & Company. Joanna Neary is a multi-award winning comedian and actor. She produces hilarious character comedy shows in the vein of Vic Reeves and Victoria Wood. Her credits include Darkest Hour, Man Down, and Ideal.
