May 22, 2025

AFTER their critically acclaimed run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Jonny & The Baptists (Jonny Donahoe and Paddy Gervers) have brought their hilarious and poignant new show The Happiness Index on a UK tour, and are stopping in Folkestone at the end of next week.

Fringe duo will bring Happiness Index to Quarterhouse

This witty musical comedy explores the connections between personal tragedy, government austerity, and mental health.

The show, which has received rave reviews for its mix of comedy, post-modern absurdity, and raw emotional honesty, features the duo's signature anthemic musical numbers.

Jonny Donahoe (Stop UKIP, Anna/Anastasia), celebrated for his work Every Brilliant Thing - a global phenomenon that has captivated audiences at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, on Broadway, and on West End stages - joins forces with Paddy Gervers (Stop UKIP, Making Paddy Happy, Lefty Scum), known for his sharp, socially conscious performances across the UK.
