About the Event

Parenthood is a crafty beast. The second you master something it changes the game so you're rubbish at it again.

The Guildhall Theatre will be closed until the end of September 2019. This event has moved to Landau Forte Theatre, Derby.

Existing ticket holders for The Guildhall Theatre can use their tickets.

Stand-up comedian, viral blogger and bestselling author Sam Avery (aka the Learner Parent) started his award-winning blog when his twin boys were born. A million nappies, Peppa Pig episodes and a head-full of hair loss later, he shares all the lows, highs and hilarious in-betweens of his experiences of first-time parenthood.

Sam's honest, messy account of wrestling with sleep deprivation and breast pumps - right through to his botched attempts at discipline and pathetic bids to stifle various toddler tantrums that definitely registered on the Richter scale - will have you testing your pelvic floor with laughter.
