Frank Skinner: Showbiz Tickets

Comedian Frank Skinner heads out on tour for the first time in four years, bringing brand new material for Showbiz. The comedian performs at the Leicester Square Theatre for a month from 3 June. Showbiz is Skinner’s first UK outing since 2014’s Man in a Suit, which played to packed houses and enjoyed critical acclaim across the board. From a man described by The Times as “provocative, remorseless, and very, very funny”, audiences can expect Skinner's new material to be characteristically observant and brazen. Skinner has been a mainstay of British comedy since 1991, when he won the prestigious Perrier Award at Edinburgh Festival Fringe. He has variously appeared as part of a double act with David Baddiel - the pair were the minds behind football ear-worm "Three Lions" - and as the host and guest of panel shows including Mock the Week and Have I Got News For You. He remains a hugely influential figure, with The Frank Skinner Show (1995-2005) widely considered to set the stage for the modern comedy chat show format. Whether you know him from Room 101 or Man in a Suit, Skinner’s uniquely wry humour is guaranteed to put a smile on your face. Showbiz plays at the Leicester Square Theatre from 3 June to 4 July 2019.
