In Thank God This Lasts Forever, John Tothill recounts a year marked by chaos after he deliberately contracted malaria in a clinical trial to fund his 2023 Edinburgh debut. A 2024 Chortle Best Newcomer nominee, Tothill shares a series of true, wildly entertaining anecdotes reflecting on bizarre incidents like a mouse infestation and encounters with the Devil. His energetic storytelling style recalls that of Kate Berlant, inviting audiences on a meandering journey that explores themes such as punctuality, the essence of modern comedians, and unexpected brush with death. Tothill, praised by the Guardian and the Telegraph, brings his signature humor and unique perspective back to the stage.
