James Acaster Lets the Audience Misbehave in New HBO Comedy Special ‘Hecklers Welcome’
James Acaster has announced his first HBO comedy special, 'Hecklers Welcome,' for November.
During his previous show, “Cold Lasagne Hate Myself 1999,” Acaster faced an increased number of hecklers, leading him to question whether he wanted to continue performing stand-up comedy. Per the logline, “With his wiry observational eye and incomparable wit, Acaster shares hilarious on-the-fly meta-analysis of his own material, along with stories from his childhood that spurred him to pursue a career in comedy — from his participation in his grandmother’s spinning wheel workshop at school to his impersonation of Prince Charles at age six. In front of an obliging audience at the Royal & Derngate theatre in Northampton, England, Acaster unleashes his infectious energy as he delves into what initially drew him to the stage and what keeps him there.”
