Olga Koch has one good story. Only it’s not really her story. Do you wanna hear it?Fat Tom Cruise is part-history lesson, part-gossip session, and part-horror story. The show is about toxic masculinity, male loneliness, and the reality of the #metoo era – without ever actually mentioning any of those things by name. It’s very funny though.
Fat Tom Cruise sees the Melbourne and Edinburgh Comedy Award-nominated star comb through recent history in an immersive and genre-defying new show. Directed by Jet Vevers. Speaking of bringing her new show Fat Tom Cruise on tour across the UK, Olga Koch says: “I would love for you to come see Fat Tom Cruise on tour, not only because I think it is likely my best work but also because I am currently being sued by Tom Cruise and really need the money for legal fees. God bless.”
