Too soon?
James Sherwood�s Somewhat Premature Review of 2007

What better time to look back at the events of 2007? Any time, you might say. Early 2008, maybe, when we know what the events of 2007 are. I mean, really.

Luckily, award-winning stand-up comedian James Sherwood is not constrained by such narrow thinking. After 2006�s sell-out show �I Know What You Did Last Sunday�, Sherwood returns with a show which is, let�s face it, a bit previous.

�Brilliantly conceived and very funny�
Sherwood has phenomenal stage presence� The Scotsman

Looking at events in politics, the world, and his own life, Sherwood reviews the year using stand-up and songs. The focus is mainly on events in the first two-thirds of the year. Events which, as a historian might put it, �actually happened�. The show also considers the events of the remarkable September-December period. These events, it�s probably fair to say, took everyone by surprise.
