Jack Dee: Small World
Join Jack Dee as he guides you through his varied life and career with his customary charm and well known gift for talking absolute rubbish on any given subject.
CULTURE WARS, THE ENVIRONMENT, BRITISH FOREIGN POLICY and SOCIAL JUSTICE: these are just a few of the topics that Jack spectacularly fails to address (or even mention for that matter) in his brand new show.
Instead, for reasons known only to him, he doubles down on his fascination with the meaningless small things of life like Zoom protocol, what’s new in the world of radiators and the worst careers advice office in the world.
Dates: Fri 20

John Hegley - An American in Luton
Festival and radio regular John Hegley is at Blackpool Grand Theatre Studio with a story of family, fantasy, love, loss - and the long unseen son's stamp album. A Caravaggio and a wry dry stonewaller are also thrown into the mixture. The show contains a good deal of yet-to-be-published material alongside some back catalogue favourites. Devised for adults but not unsuitable for the odd nine-year-old. Drawings will be provided. But not biscuits.
