7:30PM – INGRID DAHLE: WIP
Why are some people instantly your people… and others make you want to fake your own death? Award-winning Norwegian comedian Ingrid Dahle takes a funny, affectionate and slightly nosy look at the wonderful weirdness of people — from love, friendship and finding your tribe to the bizarre things we all do when we think nobody is watching. Expect sharp observations, big stories, ridiculous behaviour and Ingrid’s very particular view of the world. Because people are complicated, fascinating, occasionally exhausting… but mostly brilliant.
