Caution: Deadline Ahead - A Comedy About Procrastination

You have goals, you have plans, you have a brilliant future ahead. But you also have Candy Crush, Facebook, and 1,035 unread emails that you decided now is a good time to sort. Welcome to Cristina’s brain, an entity of its own, with its own will, who’s convinced that the concept of time is an illusion and that it’s suddenly a great moment to read about it online.” If you think that you're the master of procrastination, challenge accepted! This narrative, full of insight, hilarious real-life anecdotes and imaginary scenarios, is not only a psychologically accurate portrait of the mind of a procrastinator, it's mainly highly relatable, and will certainly make you, fellow procrastinator, feel normal and understood. After a successful international tour in 2018-2019, Cristina Lark is now adapting her solo theater show "Caution: Deadline Ahead (A Comedy About Procrastination)" into this book. It contains exclusive original illustrations, and, in a (rare!) more serious note, an insightful conclusion in the end (also exclusive to the book!). Read it in a moment of procrastination, leave inspired to take action! (seriously, many people who've seen the show left shaken with a wake up call). Here are some of the reviews the show got: "Will resonate on a level you would never believe. Lark is absolutely stone-cold hilarious. She is a clever comedian at the top of her game. If nods of affirmation were applause, Lark would receive a standing ovation after every statement!” - The Fourth Wall, Perth, 2019. “Hilarious narrative. Relatable, boisterous and quick-witted. Brilliantly delivered.” - Weekend Notes, Adelaide, 2019. “Spot-on observations. Very sharp and honest. Held a mirror up to the audience. A funny and sharp look into the world of procrastination.” - Upside News, Adelaide, 2019. “A high-energy meta show, which takes audiences on a crash course through the life of a procrastinator”. - FringeFeed, Perth, 2019. "The audience has no choice but to bow down before it's new Jedi Master. Lark's a ball of fire. Guaranteed to make you feel better about yourself" - The Advertiser, Adelaide, 2018. "It's hard not to love Cristina Lark. She's a talented comedienne. A delightful speaker and a great actress" - EdFringeReview, Edinburgh, 2018. "Cristina Lark is a firecracker with a mind that moves as fast as lightning" - Arthur's Seat, Edinburgh, 2018. "Cristina Lark is more than a comedy firecracker onstage: try a full blown fireworks display. Talented and very funny. A hilarious hour that was over all too quickly". Chuck Moore Reviews, Adelaide, 2018.

About the Author

Actor, award winning public speaking coach and world-class procrastinator, Cristina Lark lived and performed in the UK, Australia, Spain and Brazil.

With an MA at renowned RADA but impossible to cast in any stereotypical roles due to her weird accent, she writes her own material, like the webseries about dating disasters "It's Not You...", reviewed "go back to your country, sweetheart" by Brexiteers, but nominated for "Best Comedy Ensemble" at Rio Web Fest.

She works in English, Portuguese, Spanish, Catalan, French and Italian. She also writes, directs, devises, casts and produces for stage and screen.

Reading back, it's amazing how much she's accomplished, given her long history of procrastination and leaving everything until the last minute.
