Andrew White: Young, Gay and a Third Thing
Starting at 4pm in the courtroom, this comedy show is free to attend and suitable for age 13 plus.
It is the final activity for Dorset Youth Pride, which is taking place at Shire Hall Museum on Saturday 13th July from 10am.
Andrew White

Andrew White has been described by Joe Lycett as “very exciting and very funny” and by teachers as “a pleasure to teach” (gay). Join the fast-rising stand-up for a hilarious hour of new material tackling identity, authenticity and meat raffles!
When Andrew went full-time with comedy, his new agent advised him to set out his stall and clearly show the world (UK comedy industry) who he was: “Young, Gay and a Third Thing”. Now, four years on from those words of wisdom, he is still desperately searching for his Third Thing, before the claim of “Young” expires…
In a world of short form content and quick fix culture, how much space is there to be truly authentic? Can our identities and lives ever be accurately conveyed via a character limited bio? Why are gay weddings either the best weddings or the worst weddings and there’s no in-between? Andrew White has the answers.
