Wyndham’s Theatre, London
“Broadway’s greatest comic storyteller” (Deadline) Mike Birbiglia comes to the West End with his hit show The Old Man & The Pool.
Chronicling his coming-of-middle-age story, Mike asks the big questions: Why are we here? What’s next? What happens when the items at the doctor’s office that you thought were decorative become functional? This tale of life, death, and a highly chlorinated YMCA pool resonates with audiences ages 12 to 112, and won rave reviews whilst playing to sold-out houses in the US. Now “the best comedy of the year” (The New York Times) charms London audiences.
