Overview

The smash-hit stand-up comedy show, An Idiot’s Guide to Wine, has now arrived in Birmingham!

An Idiot's Guide to Wine combines a stand-up comedy routine with a tasting of five different wines, each with its own character. The material is written by Merrick Watts, who holds a WSET (Wine & Spirit Education Trust) Level 3 qualification, and the show is an Australian production performed in English by a local comedian. The jokes and the wines are woven together, so the tasting follows the comic material rather than running as a separate lesson.

The running time is 70 minutes. Alcohol is optional, and soft drinks are sold separately from the ticket. Filming is not permitted, as the production asks that the comedy be enjoyed live rather than through a screen, and anyone recording may be asked to delete the footage.

The show is aimed at couples, groups of friends and people attending on their own. It takes place at Alfresco at Alfred Works in the Deritend area of Birmingham, which is wheelchair accessible. The venue can be chilly in winter, so it is worth dressing warmly.
