Chris Addison
Star of the BAFTA winning comedy The Thick Of It, and his own BBC
TWO sitcom Lab Rats, Mr. la-di-da smartypants Addison is also
regarded as one of the most versatile stand-ups in the country. With his
pacy, energetic routines and faultless delivery, he has charmed
audiences, Perrier judges (who nominated him twice) and critics alike
as a top class purveyor of smartarse daftness, whimsy, perspiration,
lies, jokes and flapping about.
When he's not been appearing on Have I Got News For You or starring
in Armando Iannucci's forthcoming feature film In The Loop, he's spent
most of the last couple of years sitting in a shed at the bottom of his
garden writing Lab Rats, a couple of books (Cautionary Tales For
Grown-Ups and It Wasn't Me: Why Everyone Else Is To Blame And
You're Not) and two series for BBC Radio 4, one of which - (The Ape
That Got Lucky) went on to win the Sony Award in 2006. So this show is
a rare opportunity to see him live right there in front of you on a stage,
doing talking and that. You should go. You really should.
"The best stand-up I've seen."
The Observer
"He's brilliant. No question."
The Times
"Downright hilarious. His stories reduced a packed
crowd to tears of helpless laughter."
The Sunday Times
"Superlative, intelligent comedy."
The Daily Telegraph
"A fantastic show. Flawless."
The Independent
