'If comedy could ever be described as necessary, this is it.' The Observer
Mark Thomas Live Comedy Show
In a dynamic 60minute session, stand up comedian Mark Thomas recalls how he put a bounty on G.W Bush, dodged a refugees camel in the Sahara, and sang for his life underneath a busload of arms dealers. Join the stand-ups campaign to legalise brothels and throw confetti against the war. Stopping only to masturbate in a London police cell, the comic will take you on a mind bending trip through nuclear Scotland, go naught to sixty in globalised India, and will help you discover what the 'real thing' is in Columbia.
