Selected Tragedy Vol 2 - The Tragedy Inside

The second episode (or volume as we like to think of them) of Selected Tragedy. These shows are themed collections of highlights from three years of tragedy. We will be putting out weekly volumes of selected tragedy until our live shows start up again in on the 28th February 2015.

Vol 2 highlights two moments where performers shared stories of their mental health issues with us and talks about how Stand Up Tragedy has become a space where these issues are regularly covered. Content Note: depression, anxiety, suicide, bullying.

It also features a performance fro,m SUT host Dave Pickering that didn't happen at a Stand Up Tragedy so it should be new to podcast listeners. It's a true story that was told at a night when park London and Risk! teamed up. That show in full over on the Risk! podcast: http://risk-show.com/podcast/3177/

Spark London is running a night of stories around and about mental health on Monday 1st December at the Hackney Attic which Dave will be hosting: https://www.facebook.com/events/794582853913972/
