Gaining rave reviews at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2019, (and in 2022 – ★★★★★​​ – Scotsman) the 2020 tour was interrupted when, frankly, things got even worse, so Andrew is bringing it back as we rebuild after the pandemic.
The show is named after an anarchist slogan from the Spanish Civil War, coined by the anarchist Bueneventura Durruti.
‘It really gives me hope,’ says O’Neill. ‘Unfortunately he was shot dead and then the fascists won, but you can’t have everything.’
Andrew O’Neill – We Are Not In The Least Afraid Of Ruins; We Carry A New World In Our Hearts is at the The Pig, Hastings on Friday 21st April 2023.
“A revelation. Fiercely passionate about environmentalism and anti-capitalism, but far from preachy… A sometimes unsung ability to blow the bloody doors off” – Fest
