Alex Mitchell: Tics Towards Puffection
8 April 2025
ABOUT
Britain's Got Talent 2024 finalist Alex Mitchell is an autistic comic with functional neurological disorder (FND). He uses self-deprecating humour - laughing at himself, his neurodivergence, disability and sexuality - to reflect on some of the most difficult subjects within his own life and wider society.
His debut show, Tics Towards Perfection, tackles his desperate obsession for perfection and being 'the best version' of himself. He explores how and if he'll ever achieve this, and how this has and continues to impact his life. Reflecting on society's perfection of queer, disabled, and neurodiverse communities, as well as his own perception of himself, Mitchell creates a heartwarming, emotional but always hilarious show.
