Cake is the debut hour from stand-up comedian, Sam Lake. Cake is a show about
our obsession with goal setting, why we feel pressure to achieve things
before a certain age. And how we behave when we don't achieve them. Do we
try and convince everyone everything's fine? 2020 was slated to be a big
year for Sam. Not only was he set to do his first solo show, he was going
to get married to the love of his life, they were going to travel, he was
in the middle of a muscle-building-fitness journey, they were looking at
houses. Then, just like most people's plans, everything went up in smoke
around mid-March. In his hotly anticipated debut, This "thoroughly
engaging larger-than-life personality" (Steve Bennett, Chortle) talks
through stories about his relationship, his wedding plans and how
sometimes great things can happen when you don't plan for them. Sam Lake
is a stand-up comedian, presenter, writer & performer. He's recently been
seen on All4's 'The Joy of Missing Out' alongside Tom Allen. As well as
winning the Leicester Square Theatre New Comedian of the Year award, his
writing has been featured on Newsjack & Mock The Week.
