Why see this show?
Part comedy, part therapy session, Meek Inheritance is a rare Fringe show that takes big, urgent questions — about AI, the future and what we leave behind — and makes them feel personal and funny. Sharath Jeevan's unusual mix of Oxford academic rigour and stand-up warmth makes for a 90-minute hour unlike anything else on the Spoken Word circuit.
