Book NowAbout Nathan Hugh Robért
My Mum Accidentally Set Me Up With A Married Woman is a stand-up comedy show by Nathan Hugh Robért, performed at Nic 5 (Nicolson Square Venues Courtyard). A saleswoman knocked on his family's door, his mum got her number, and insisted he asked her out. They started dating — but the woman was already married, in an open marriage. Too nervous to tell his sheltered, Christian parents the truth, he tried to keep the marriage a secret. He tried and failed. The show carries a strong language warning and is for adults only.
Why see this show?
A stand-up built around an absurd but entirely true-feeling domestic catastrophe — the gap between what your parents hope for and what your life actually is. Compact, personal, and very cheap.
