An Evening with Dom Joly Welcome To Wherever I Am

Harlem Gospel Choir

We’ll Meet Again Stars In Battledress

For the last ten years, since his multi award-winning international TV hit, Trigger Happy TV, Dom Joly has led the most extraordinary of lives. In this laugh-out-loud show, Dom talks us through the perils of travelling the world drinking, skiing down volcanoes, holidaying in Chernobyl and North Korea, becoming a paparazzo, trying to fly across the Grand Canyon strapped to an eight foot rocket, turning into Tintin, being arrested in Switzerland while dressed as a yeti, discovering that he was at school with Osama Bin Laden and eating from Gillian McKeith’s pants while imprisoned in the Australian jungle. In this highly original and funny show, Dom attempts to make sense of it all with the aid of some very peculiar holiday snaps.
