About Ned Arnold
Ned Arnold performs this autobiographical storytelling and comedy show about a real chapter of his life: a secret relationship with his university professor that lasted three years. She was 46 when it began; he was 20. Together they fell in love — kinda — while he was still at school. The show walks audiences through the do's and don'ts of the whole affair, from first moves and consummation to the reality of living out what many people only fantasise about. Running for 60 minutes at the Just the Bottle Room, it is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over.
Why see this show?
A hilarious and riveting personal story told with candour and comedic precision, this show turns an unusual real-life experience into sharp, engaging storytelling. Ned Arnold's deadpan account of an unlikely romance makes for an entertaining hour.
