Big tour for josie long.

Following a successful sold out run of her new show,  ‘Re-Enchantment’,  at this year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe, award-winning comedian  Josie Long  is set to embark on her biggest UK tour to date from 12th January to 28th September 2023. The 39 date run includes some of UK's most  ico nic venues, such as Leeds’ City Varieties Music Hall, The Lowry in Salford and London’s EartH Hackney.

Inspired by this thought, Josie is back to – alternately – yell at you and melt your heart, with her trademark blend of humanity, compassion, and probably some brief political rants.  ‘Re-Enchantment’  follows Josie’s critically-acclaimed 2019 show,  ‘Tender’ , a parenting-in-a-climate-emergency epic which documented her voyage into motherhood (as the first person ever to have a baby, according to her research) and the mind-bending process of nurturing a new life. Now Josie returns, after doing what any comedian in her position would do: have another baby. 

Even more delirious with tiredness and chock-full of confused emotion about the ever-changing, terrible yet beautiful world around her, Josie is set to travel the UK with her sweet-sharp observations, political rants, and one of the most dependable joke rates to be found anywhere. 

Josie is a multi-award-winning comedian, writer, podcaster, and film-maker. She is a trailblazer of the UK comedy industry, as the first woman to be nominated three times for Edinburgh Comedy Award (2010 - 2012). Her nine critically-acclaimed tours showcase her unique and powerfully original voice and have been performed globally to sell-out audiences. Her various podcasts and original radio shows h ave garnered her a world-wide fan base of dedicated listeners and multiple awards, with her latest BBC Radio 4 special released this year called  ‘What Next?’  - a typically fierce, yet funny manifesto for the world her daughter will inherit - which was adapted from ‘ Tender’  following a successful national tour.

Josie is an avid film-maker, having written and performed in two short films and most recently a full-length feature called ‘ Super November .’ She’s been on all the TV channels, and has two comedy specials currently streaming. ‘ Cara Josephine’  is available on Amazon Prime, and ‘ Something Better’  is available on Netflix. Her first collection of short fiction is due for publication soon.

Josie Long announces 2023 tour Re-Enchantment

Tuesday 1st November 2022, 12:33pm

Following a successful run of her brand-new show, Re-Enchantment , at this year's Edinburgh Festival Fringe , award-winning comedian Josie Long is set to embark on her biggest UK tour yet.

With 39 dates spanning 12th January to 28th September 2023 , she will visit venues in Barnsley, London, Glasgow, Wigan, Leicester, Dublin, Kettering and Clevedon, amongst others.

Tickets are available now .

"After defeat, re-enchantment is necessary," said Lola Olufemi.

Inspired by this thought, Josie is back to - alternately - yell at you and melt your heart, with her trademark blend of humanity, compassion, and probably some brief political rants. Re-Enchantment follows Josie's critically-acclaimed 2019 show, Tender , a parenting-in-a-climate-emergency epic that documented her voyage into motherhood (as the first person ever to have a baby, according to her research) and the mind-bending process of nurturing a new life. Now she's back after doing what any comedian in her position would do: have another baby.

Even more delirious with tiredness and chock-full of confused emotion about the ever-changing, terrible yet beautiful world around her, Josie travels the UK with her sweet-sharp observations, political rants, and one of the most dependable joke rates to be found anywhere.

Josie Long: Re-Enchantment

Edinburgh Fringe comedy review

Josie Long embraced lockdown as a chance to spend more time with her young daughters and to masquerade as a mob boss. And there’s a similar mix of the sweet and the brutally uncompromising running throughout her Fringe return.

With the giddy enthusiasm of one who can’t wait to share all her news, Long has experienced some significant changes in the last couple of years, turning 40, having her second child, moving to Glasgow and getting diagnosed with ADHD.

Effectively compounding her recent personal past and the politically topical present, the aspic inertia of lockdown and the current tumult over wage strikes, she brands anyone who devoted themselves to self-improvement during the pandemic in the vilest terms, a label she delights in liberally tossing around throughout the show.

One of the threads running throughout Re-Enchantment is why she fled London, tired of being on the losing side politically, and how she’s energised by Glasgow’s radical tradition, inspiring her to speak out on the creeping erosion of civil liberties.

Long is rarely characterised as a political comic, which seems wrong, not least given the agitating spirit which takes hold in the second half of this show especially. As ever, however, the polemic is couched in smiling warmth and good humour, her unbowed optimism even as the Tories triumph again and again.

She chiefly exploits her ADHD diagnosis as an excuse for her poor behaviour and curses her brain, incapable of remembering important matters but instantly recalling advert jingles and flyers from her youth. Though that’s tempered by an awareness that, while her comedian partner was out on tour, the mother-of-two reluctantly had to be the ‘adult’ in her household.

The rampant pest infestation that overwhelms their home challenges her smug delight in her Glaswegian socialist, artisanal indie wonderland. And it forces her into some regrettable bug genocide, the true nature of her desperate cull kept from encroaching upon her daughters’ innocence. It also forced her into an upfront confrontation with an exterminator demanding to know her views on Brexit.

Suffice to say, Long has little patience for whinging right-wingers and little truck with the narrative of cancel culture, mocking the monstering of ‘The Woke Brigade’ as if it were any kind of coordinated movement. If anything, she feels pressured by the looming threat of the Daily Mail and its ilk into keeping schtum about  her  thoughts, censorship in comedy she decries before blatantly blurting her views anyway.

Encompassing Scottish independence, the future of the Royal Family and the fallout from Covid, her ‘real opinions’, that she supposedly can’t share, get pretty dark, spiky balls in what’s otherwise a generally velvety glove of warm inclusiveness.

For someone still so childlike and welcoming in her bearing, Long leaves you in absolutely no doubt about where she stands on any given political matter, name-checking individual bills about to become law that will further restrict liberties and human rights. Buddhist principles teach her that direct confrontation might not be the best means of opposing her enemies. But she can still be really, really sarcastic.

Despite her anger, self-mockery of her more ‘bougie’ instincts and acceptance that she’s abandoned the good fight to an extent by leaving England, Long convinces you that she’s found her place in a community spirit denied to her in London, a real sense of finding more common ground and fiery purpose. And that can only bring more power to her elbow as she continues to evolve as a comic.

Interview: Josie Long on Finding Optimism in Comedy Amidst Political Disaster

Comedian Josie Long’s show, “Something Better” is about a lot of things. It’s about Pint Grigio, Long’s acceptance of Adele’s genius, and  To Kill a Mockingbird , but mostly, it’s about trying to find the optimism that a lot of people feel like they lost when their countries turned towards hate and anger. (There’s also a small bit about the ridiculousness of Rupert Holmes’s “Escape,” but she denies that’s part of the show.)

For Long, that was Brexit and when she took her tour to America, it was Trump getting elected. During “Something Better,” Long put into words so much of what I was feeling with hilarity and empathy. It’s tough to think about what role comedy is supposed to play when real life feels like a parody of itself–either it’s complete escapism, or it’s just a ridiculous true fact that’s more depressing than anything else–but Long captures, well, “Something Better.”

TMS (Charline): How did “Something Better” change over time as 2016 progressed with Brexit and Trump?

Long:  I set out in May 2016 to write a show that was about politics but solely a positive one- about activists I admired, audacious and cool things that they had done and about people I saw as heroes from all over the world, but Brexit, and then Trump’s victory were so seismic that they felt inescapable. My show became about trying to get back to the hopeful place I had been in before writing it! They both were and remain such massive shifts in reality that I had to write about them.

TMS:  What is Adele’s best track?

Long:  Oh MATE it’s “Rolling in the Deep.” It’s obviously “Rolling in the Deep.” But I mean she has made so many bangers and so few clangers that it’s hard to choose just one. But it’s “Rolling in the Deep.” Let’s be real here. I’m now worried that song isn’t actually called “Rolling in the Deep.”

TMS:  What do you think comedy specifically brings to social change and activism?

Long:  I used to think and hope that comedy could help stop the right winning elections, but then recent elections have temporarily disabused me of that notion. I really do believe that comedy can help people to keep going, and to feel like they are not crazy and are not alone. I think a good comedy show can help empower better people than me to do more important things! I hope so anyway!

TMS:  You have a segment about privilege in your show. How do you think awareness of that informs your comedy?

Long:  I tend to write about whatever I feel most passionate about, and what I feel I’m trying to learn about and this has been something that I am trying to understand better and be more aware of. I really hope I can try and get better at talking about it onstage as I think it’s really important. Unexpectedly, I’ve found Twitter has been such a big thing for helping teach me about structures of power and privilege and how to try and be of use to activists and progressives who are challenging them. But I find it awkward and difficult to talk about because I become hyper British and awkward trying to confront uncomfortable topics.

TMS:  Did you have any especially funny or memorable encounters bringing your British references to the US?

Long:  Ha my main thing is that I simply COULD NOT BELIEVE that you guys don’t have the song “oh I do like to be beside the seaside” in the States. What do you sing if you like to be beside the seaside? It makes me so sad.

TMS:  What should be the biggest takeaway from your show?

Long:  I hope it’s silly and optimistic and makes people feel like they aren’t alone in feeling daunted by the new reality we find ourselves in, but also that things aren’t hopeless either. Or just that they like my bit of material about necklaces.

TMS:  Can you tell me more about your awesome showgramme?

Long:  Sure thing! I really like making little zines, and for this show I made one with a (terribly drawn) (I mean really bad) comic book about some cool activists I met . I like giving the crowd something extra for free that they don’t expect.

TMS:  Is there anything we should know about “Something Better” or you that we haven’t covered?

Long:  I have terrible posture but a kind heart. I love butter and I think it should be a crime to scrimp on it. I can’t drive, but I often have dreams where I drive so I reckon in a pinch I could give it a good go. My show is a lot sillier and more fun than some of my earnest replies suggest, I swear.

Fun facts from our Moscow Metro Tours:

From the very first days of its existence, the Moscow Metro was the object of civil defense, used as a bomb shelter, and designed as a defense for a possible attack on the Soviet Union.

At a depth of 50 to 120 meters lies the second, the coded system of Metro-2 of Moscow subway, which is equipped with everything you need, from food storage to the nuclear button.

According to some sources, the total length of Metro-2 reaches over 150 kilometers.

The Museum was opened on Sportivnaya metro station on November 6, 1967. It features the most interesting models of trains and stations.

Coffee Ring

The first scheme of Moscow Metro looked like a bunch of separate lines. Listen to a myth about Joseph Stalin and the main brown line of Moscow Metro.

Zodiac Metro

According to some astrologers, each of the 12 stops of the Moscow Ring Line corresponds to a particular sign of the zodiac and divides the city into astrological sector.

Astrologers believe that being in a particular zadiac sector of Moscow for a long time, you attract certain energy and events into your life.

Paleontological finds 

Red marble walls of some of the Metro stations hide in themselves petrified inhabitants of ancient seas. Try and find some!

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.

Touring the Top 10 Moscow Metro Stations

By Claudia Looi 2 Comments

Komsomolskaya metro station looks like a museum. It has vaulted ceilings and baroque decor.

Hidden underground, in the heart of Moscow, are historical and architectural treasures of Russia. These are Soviet-era creations – the metro stations of Moscow.

Our guide Maria introduced these elaborate metro stations as “the palaces for the people.” Built between 1937 and 1955, each station holds its own history and stories. Stalin had the idea of building beautiful underground spaces that the masses could enjoy. They would look like museums, art centers, concert halls, palaces and churches. Each would have a different theme. None would be alike.

The two-hour private tour was with a former Intourist tour guide named Maria. Maria lived in Moscow all her life and through the communist era of 60s to 90s. She has been a tour guide for more than 30 years. Being in her 60s, she moved rather quickly for her age. We traveled and crammed with Maria and other Muscovites on the metro to visit 10 different metro stations.

Arrow showing the direction of metro line 1 and 2

Moscow subways are very clean

To Maria, every street, metro and building told a story. I couldn’t keep up with her stories. I don’t remember most of what she said because I was just thrilled being in Moscow.   Added to that, she spilled out so many Russian words and names, which to one who can’t read Cyrillic, sounded so foreign and could be easily forgotten.

The metro tour was the first part of our all day tour of Moscow with Maria. Here are the stations we visited:

1. Komsomolskaya Metro Station  is the most beautiful of them all. Painted yellow and decorated with chandeliers, gold leaves and semi precious stones, the station looks like a stately museum. And possibly decorated like a palace. I saw Komsomolskaya first, before the rest of the stations upon arrival in Moscow by train from St. Petersburg.

2. Revolution Square Metro Station (Ploshchad Revolyutsii) has marble arches and 72 bronze sculptures designed by Alexey Dushkin. The marble arches are flanked by the bronze sculptures. If you look closely you will see passersby touching the bronze dog's nose. Legend has it that good luck comes to those who touch the dog's nose.

3. Arbatskaya Metro Station served as a shelter during the Soviet-era. It is one of the largest and the deepest metro stations in Moscow.

4. Biblioteka Imeni Lenina Metro Station was built in 1935 and named after the Russian State Library. It is located near the library and has a big mosaic portrait of Lenin and yellow ceramic tiles on the track walls.

5. Kievskaya Metro Station was one of the first to be completed in Moscow. Named after the capital city of Ukraine by Kiev-born, Nikita Khruschev, Stalin's successor.

6. Novoslobodskaya Metro Station  was built in 1952. It has 32 stained glass murals with brass borders.

7. Kurskaya Metro Station was one of the first few to be built in Moscow in 1938. It has ceiling panels and artwork showing Soviet leadership, Soviet lifestyle and political power. It has a dome with patriotic slogans decorated with red stars representing the Soviet's World War II Hall of Fame. Kurskaya Metro Station is a must-visit station in Moscow.

8. Mayakovskaya Metro Station built in 1938. It was named after Russian poet Vladmir Mayakovsky. This is one of the most beautiful metro stations in the world with 34 mosaics painted by Alexander Deyneka.

9. Belorusskaya Metro Station is named after the people of Belarus. In the picture below, there are statues of 3 members of the Partisan Resistance in Belarus during World War II. The statues were sculpted by Sergei Orlov, S. Rabinovich and I. Slonim.

10. Teatralnaya Metro Station (Theatre Metro Station) is located near the Bolshoi Theatre.
