The Cosmic Shambles Network | A Stay at Home Xmas Special - with Robin Ince, Josie Long, Adam Kay, Helen Czerski, Grace Petrie etc @cosmicshambles | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 8 hours ago
Following two hugely popular months of Stay At Home Festival live shows with Josie Long during lockdown and a 25 hour live show on 12th December, plus an encore on the 19th, Robin Ince and his Cosmic Shambles friends will be back LIVE on Christmas Day.

Seeing the way that the audience connected online during these shows, they felt that a live show on Christmas morning might be nice way of connecting with people who may be alone or looking after loved ones.

It will be an hour of songs, comedy, poems and conversation with guests including Adam Kay, author of This is Going to Hurt, Olivier award winning writer and performer Andy Nyman, Showstopper star Pippa Evans, folk stars Grace Petrie and Jim Moray, and some science for Christmas with Dr Helen Czerski and Dr Suzi Gage, all held together by Josie Long and Robin Ince.

The Universe was made by a god, sometimes omnipotent, sometimes fractious, sometimes both. Now, as we explore the Universe and start to explain ourselves, the Universe has started to lose it single meaning and we have to find individual meanings ourselves. This is Tips for Existence where Robin Ince talks to cosmologists, composers, astronauts and authors about what gives them meaning.
