John Bishop

Sat 21 Nov

8pm

F:£12 C:£10

John is the age Elvis was when he died. Crisis?

John’s engaging brand of observational humour mines his varied and colourful life experience. From fatherhood to cycling around the world, from a successful career in the corporate sector to playing semi-professional football and from working as a night club doorman to being voted the person most likely to turn on the Liverpool City Christmas lights, no two shows are ever the same with John.

John has appeared on Channel 4’s 8 of 10 Cats as well as in the teen series Skins, and has his own commercial radio show, The John Bishop Sunday Service.

"Bishop is a born storyteller" Independent on Sunday

"If you fail to laugh like a lunatic, check yourself into a mortuary; you are probably dead" Metro.
