£10 tickets for hilarious comedy show Man 1 Bank 0 at Soho Theatre

  • Wed 6 - Sat 16 March

  • 7.15pm Man 1 Bank 0

      Amazing, hilarious and true. Patrick Combs deposited a fake $95,093.35 junk mail cheque into his bank account as a joke. It cleared.

      This outrageously funny David and Goliath tale of Man vs Bank is told by the man it actually happened to - an absolutely true tale of the bank's attempt to get the money back that attracted worldwide media coverage (including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Good Morning America and calls from Letterman & Leno).

      A must-see comedy adventure that will appeal to anyone who has ever wanted to get one over on the bankers.

      'An extraordinary and highly entertaining evening.'- ***** Irish Mail on Sunday

      'Combs has refined his storytelling to an art... Priceless.' Time Out New York

      'This guy's got star power.' Variety

      £10 tickets (usually up to £17.50) with code 'Statesman' online at http://sohotheatre.com/whats-on/man-1-bank-0/ or by phone on 020 7478 0100
