League of Gentlemen and Inside No. 9 co-creator Reece Shearsmith opens his personal collection of macabre curiosities in this live storytelling show, based on his illustrated memoir. Guided by a special guest host, he shares the stories behind bizarre artefacts - from a screaming skull to a talking mongoose - and reveals how these dark obsessions shaped his creative work. The 110-minute show includes audience questions. Recommended for ages 14+.
