Come and join the comedian, broadcaster, campaigner (and tiny Danish beacon of hope) Sandi Toksvig on the 03 October 2025 for an evening celebrating her love and passion for writers and books. A sell-out in 2024, this show is packed with fascinating stories, a lively Q&A and the much-contested ‘Cleverest Person in the Room’ game. Dive into Sandi’s extraordinary collection as she explores outrageous and bizarre titles such as ‘The Beginners Guide to Sex in the Afterlife’ and ‘Cheese Problems Solved.’
Marking the paperback publication of her Sunday Times Bestselling novel, Sandi’s live shows are life-affirming, smart, and funny.
“Warm, witty, and wise . . . the perfect balm for these turbulent times” Graham Norton
“The consultant had told me he was confident I had throat cancer that had spread into the lymph glands. Joyfully, I held his hand, and looked up to the heavens like a South American footballer after scoring a goal. It was one of the happiest moments of my life.”
Join multi award-winning, BAFTA-nominated writer and comedian Mark Steel for his new tour ‘The Leopard in My House’. The topic? His battle with throat cancer. A battle he is winning (thankfully) and which only his rapier wit could fashion a comedy tour show out of. Cancer has done nothing to dull Mark’s acute political observations or quash his “frankly bonkers” energy: you will laugh, you will cry, but you’ll laugh again, and again, and again. The Leopard in My House is proof that this leftie, working-class, Radio 4 favourite truly deserves his place in the UK comedy pantheon.
Mark Steel is best known for his critically-acclaimed BBC Radio 4 show Mark Steel’s in Town (now in its 13th series), as well as his hit podcast What The F*** Is Going On…?. He has presented the BAFTA-nominated Mark Steel Lectures for BBC Two, and is a regular on BBC One’s Have I Got News for You and BBC Radio 4’s The News Quiz. He has also written several acclaimed books, including an adaptation of his critically acclaimed stand-up show Who Do I Think I Am? for Audible.
Sara Pascoe will be bringing her highly entertaining show I Am A Strange Gloop to York Theatre Royal on the 07 February 2026.
Have you ever been awake in the middle of the night and thought something so smart and astute that you couldn’t wait for the world to wake up so you could tell them?
THIS SHOW IS THAT THOUGHT.
In that it doesn’t make much sense and is a bit weird on reflection.
Sara Pascoe is a comedian, and her children don’t sleep and her kitchen won’t clean itself and her husband “doesn’t want to be in it”.
As seen and heard on Taskmaster, Live at the Apollo, The Great British Sewing Bee, Last One Laughing UK, QI, 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, Mock the Week and co-host of Sara & Cariad’s Weirdos Book Club podcast.
