Fin Taylor has never shied away from risky topics with white privilege taking a beating in 2016’s ‘Whitey McWhiteface’ and political schisms in 2017’s ‘Lefty Tighty Righty Loosey’, but he’s perhaps made his best show taking on the #MeToo furore. Critically acclaimed at last year’s Edinburgh Fringe ‘When Harassy Met Sally’ shows Taylor still has his finger on the pulse, he’s just not sure if that’s flirting or harassment. Fin has quickly established himself as one of the most original voices on the comedy circuit, gaining a reputation for being a fiercely funny and uncompromising social commentator. After appearances on The Mash Report, Live at the Apollo and Roast Battles, Taylor’s no nonsense approach to comedy is a refreshing mix of new and old stand up.
Fri 22 Feb, Union Theatre, University of Manchester Students’ Union, Oxford Road, Manchester M13 9PR. Tel: 0161 275 2930. 7.30pm, £8/10 www.seetickets.com
