Garrett Millerick Needs More Space, sees comedy’s ‘angriest optimist’ return for a hilarious, honest, and mostly historically accurate, exploration of space travel. In his new hour, Garrett examines his totally insignificant place in the universe and how little we actually know about anything.

His powerful performances and ability to blend personal experiences with hilarious social commentary, whilst also avoiding political partisanship, has seen Garrett establish a reputation as one of the most challenging, honest and original comedians of his generation. Needs More Space promises to be his funniest show yet as he looks to the stars to find solutions to our earthy complications.

In addition to his live tours Garrett is the creator and star of The BBC’s new sitcom series ‘Do Gooders’ with Frank Skinner, Ania Magliano and Ahir Shah. And has recently been seen performing stand up on hit US Late Night show ‘Conan’. He has spent four consecutive years being recommended as one of the top comedy shows at the Edinburgh Fringe, and his last three shows have been recorded and distributed internationally by the US comedy label 800 Pound Gorilla Records.
