Alex Edelman – Just For Us comes to The Menier Chocolate Factory this January

Alex Edelman – Just For Us comes to The Menier Chocolate Factory in London in 2023.

Following a smash-hit sell-out extended season in New York, the production opens on 18 January, with previews from 11 January, and runs until 26 February.

The production reunites Edelman with director Adam Brace – who have collaborated since 2014.

Just For Us takes the audience through hilarious anecdotes from Alex Edelman’s life — his Olympian brother AJ, an unconventional holiday season, and a gorilla that can do sign language — but at its centre is an astonishing and frighteningly relevant story.

After a string of anti-Semitic abuse is directed at Edelman online, he decides to covertly attend a gathering of White Nationalists in New York City and comes face to face with the people behind the keyboards. The result is a hair-raising encounter that gives Just For Us its title and final, jaw-dropping twist.
