Comedy legend Frank Skinner is returning to De Montfort Hall with his critically acclaimed stand-up show Showbiz. Prior to his west end triumph, the last twelve months have seen Frank perform sold-out runs at London’s Leicester Square Theatre, the Edinburgh fringe, and a 45-date national UK tour, making Showbiz the must-see comedy event of the year. What the critics have said about Frank Skinner and Showbiz: A beautifully confessional new show. His material continues to improve and this is possibly his best show yet. Stephen Armstrong, The Sunday Times The king of stand-up. Bruce Dessau, Evening Standard Real stand-up, real lightness of touch, real joy. Dominic Maxwell, The Times Skinner is warm, impeccable company and his way with a punchline is still masterful…there are numerous brilliant moments… an evening in Skinner’s company is a delight. Paul Fleckney, The Guardian Skinner is a comic at ease with himself and his career, and Showbiz proves to be a masterclass in owning the room. Veronica Lee, The I Doing what he does best… the gags just keep on coming. Stand-up’s coming home. Mark Wareham, Mail on Sunday Sharp punchlines…a witty, entertaining raconteur. Steve Bennett, Chortle He’s clearly lost none of his mojo. Sharon Lougher, Metro
