Details

Written and performed by Carr, It Hasn't Happened Yet is the story of burgeoning comedian Alex Saunders as she navigates her way through the minefields of disability and comedy, with wheelchair and alter-ego in tow. Plunging chair-first into territory where few dare to go, Carr challenges conventional perceptions about language, humour, success, fame, Barry Manilow and even fish!
