Frank Skinner: Showbiz Tickets
Garrick Theatre
The “provocative (…) and very, very funny” (The Times) Frank Skinner’s new stand-up show heads to the Garrick Theatre. Enjoy an evening of his uniquely wry sense of humour in Showbiz, from 13 January 2020.
After a sold-out UK tour, comedian Frank Skinner brings his acclaimed new show to the West End in 2020. Described by critics as “delightfully meandering” (The Guardian), Showbiz is the follow-up to 2014 hit Man in a Suit, and a long-awaited return to the stage for his loyal fanbase.
He first burst onto the scene in 1991, when he won the prestigious Perrier Award at Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and his turn-of-the-century effort The Frank Skinner Show (1995-2005) is widely considered to have set the stage for the modern chat show format.
Now older and – perhaps – wiser, Skinner combines his much-loved laddish, sardonic persona with newly wry and outrageous observations about getting older and getting on.
The show was well-received on a UK tour, and played a sold-out month at Leicester Square Theatre in June 2019.
