Join Sam Lake for his first UK Tour of his critically acclaimed show, Aspiring DILF!

Written & Performed by Sam Lake, directed by Edinburgh Comedy Award Nominee, Lauren Pattinson.

With the rise of formerly beloved male celebs turning into 'anti-woke', 'why aren’t men men anymore?' toxic commentators on low-quality news outlets and podcasts, Sam has become scared of the man he may become in the future. So to combat this fragile masculinity, he’s embarking on a mission to ensure he becomes what he believes to be the last respectable form of a man, the Daddy. Join him on his journey to Daddy-dom, as he chats about Furbies, Butlins & scandalous interactions with a rugby team.
