IANtrospection - Ian younghusbands hilarious look at life with a disability after an accident left him with life changing injuries.
Ian Younghusband is a standup comedian who is also a full-time wheelchair user, after breaking his neck racing Motocross, sustaining a spinal cord injury. He describes himself as a comedic storyteller and performer.
IANtrospection looks at his life pre-disability as an Architect and former North East Motocross champion. The show focuses on his perception of how other people saw him, through to his life now as a disabled man and how this has changed (if at all).
Expect to hear stories of real life events, many of which are unique to experiencing an accident resulting in life changing injuries and then living an active life as a wheelchair user. Jokes and anecdotes can be quite dark, often involving inappropriate interactions with strangers.
The show hopes to challenge peoples attitude and perception of disability, helping them to consider their own actions, in a hilarious way.
