A comedian who showered FIFA president Sepp Blatter with banknotes, upstaged Kanye West on the Pyramid stage at Glastonbury and handed Theresa May her P45 during her Conservative Party Conference is booked in for two Cumbrian dates.
Simon Brodkin is bringing his ‘Troublemaker show to The Carnegie Theatre in Workington on December 10 and the Beggar’s Theatre in Millom on December 11.
After completely selling out the first leg of his tour, the popular comedian Simon Brodkin is extending his tour to almost 100 dates until April 2022 to meet the overwhelming demand for tickets.
Creator of the funny character Lee Nelson, Simon has performed and hosted as Lee on Live at the Apollo (BBC One), Sunday Night at the Palladium (ITV), The John Bishop Christmas Show (BBC One), Children In Need (BBC One) and Channel 4’s Comedy Gala.
Now, Simon is performing as himself for the first time ever. His show will explore what it’s like to be chased by Donald Trump’s bodyguards, make the police laugh while they arrest you, and be outed as a Jew by the Ku Klux Klan.
Simon’s audacious stunts were documented in Channel 4’s Britain’s Greatest Hoaxer, which was nominated for Best Documentary at the Monte Carlo TV Festival Golden Nymph Awards 2018, and has been watched online more than 40 million times.
Tickets are on sale now.
