Fresh from appearing as a footballer in the new season of Ted Lasso, Sapphire McIntosh debuts her first hour: a fast, funny and sharply observational show about chasing big dreams from unlikely places. Blending sharp stand-up and raw honesty with the absurd and weird, this show tackles ambition, identity and the strange overlap between football, failure and finding your way – with plenty of laughs along the way.
