Joz Norris' latest show, 'You Wait. Time Passes', is a thought-provoking exploration of artistic character and the choices that define a creative life. In this maverick confection of a show, Norris takes on the role of an unhinged, self-absorbed guru figure, imparting life lessons with a healthy dose of silliness.The show delves into Norris's career as a comedian, actor, and magician, as well as his bid to become Google's number one Joz. Through snippets of his career and interactions with his erratic AI girlfriend, Norris presents a picture of himself as a complex, multifaceted artist.At its core, the show poses big questions about the futility of the niche creative's life and whether weird artists are truly weird or just trying to express themselves in a different way. While some moments feel a bit strenuous or for-its-own-sake, the show's extreme dottiness is backed up by good jokes, twisty philosophy, and a highly energetic performance.Ultimately, 'You Wait. Time Passes' constitutes a curiously rousing defence of experimental art-making in a conformist, capitalist world. The show is a must-see for fans of comedy and experimental art, and it will be touring after its run at the Lowry in Salford.
