Everybody wants to be happy. Rory O'Hanlon is no different. This hilarious one man show looks at his pursuit of happiness, while also dealing with the worrying possibility that maybe it's just him that's mental. Off the back of Rory's first two Fringe shows Ginger Nuts and United by Liverpool, he returns with his finest show to date. This new show features a collection of brilliant observations on life, which have led Rory to question whether he's a sane man in a world gone mad, or if it's the other way round!
