Josie Long: Now is the Time of Monsters

A comedy veteran of well over quarter a century at the tender age of 43 (she did her first gig aged 14), everyone’s favourite lefty optimist Josie Long returns with the follow up to 2023’s well-received Re-Enchantment, which detailed her experiences with parenthood, Covid and moving out of London. We’re told Now is the Time of Monsters is a show about extinct megafauna, which is probably not the entire truth – the title comes from a Gramsci quote – but is almost certainly some of the truth (her kids have apparently been learning about the beasts of the Cenozoic era).
