George Rigden

Self-Inflicted

Nominee Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year 2017

Nominee Best Musical Comedy Show 2018 Leicester Comedy Festival

In 2020, George Rigden was roundly (and rightly) cancelled, and his life fell apart. In 2025, he was finally diagnosed with autism, finally sobered up – and began to put his life back together.

Now, more than half a decade on from his life falling apart, he’s finally stable (and sober) enough to talk about it.

An interactive musical comedy show about attempted redemption, coming to understand yourself and self-improvement, while also staying true to yourself.

A hilarious, heart-wrenching musical romp through the life of someone who’s been to hell and back through their own self-destructibe tendencies, and lived to tell the tale. (It's funnier than it sounds. A lot funnier.)
