You Wait. Time Passes. UK Tour

After a multi-award-nominated, 5-star critically acclaimed, sellout smash hit run at the Edinburgh Fringe, You Wait. Time Passes. is embarking on a nationwide UK tour from late 2025 through to summer 2026.

Comedians’ Choice Award-winner Joz Norris has finally completed his life’s work and he’s ready to unveil it to the world in all its glory for the first time EVER – no matter what the consequences may be. But what exactly is it? What has it cost him? And now that he’s done it, what will he do next?

A “demented, meticulous, oddly moving” (Disrupt) new show about ambition, closure and moving on from the “absurd genius” (Entertainment Now) creator and star of the acclaimed BBC Radio 4 shows The Dream Factory and A Small Talk On Small Talk.

Winner of the WoW Award for Best Comedy Show

Runner-up for the NextUp Biggest Award in Comedy

Nominee for the Malcolm Hardee Award for Comic Originality
