Terry Christian, that loud mouthed Mancunian from 90s pop culture show The Word, a stand up comic? Well yes, and a very funny one to boot. His one man show, Naked Confessions of a Recovering Catholic is a very honest, personal and at points painfully funny ‘confession’ of his life growing up in a big Irish Catholic family in Old Trafford, attending the posh ’11-plus’ era top local Catholic school (St Bede’s), through to the misery and hilarity of the famous Catholic guilt complex and how it carries itself into adulthood in all its clumsy and awkward incarnations.

Naked Confessions of a Recovering Catholic is not only very funny, brilliantly observational and an overdue pop at the absurdities of the Roman Catholic Church, Christian himself is a natural and fantastically self-deprecating stand-up.
