Laughter abounds in Eastbourne

Alice Blezard May 6, 2015

Eastbourne set to be a go-to destination for fans of comedy this summer.

WEB.600

EASTBOURNE Theatres will see Michael McIntyre, Alan Carr, Ruby Wax and Joe Pasquale take to the stage, amongst many other well-known comedians.

Dara O’Briain starts the ball rolling on May 8, with his show Crowd Tickler. One of the most recognisable faces on British TV as the host of Mock The Week and Star Gazing Live, expect fast-paced comedy from the king of audience interaction.

Next the rude, crude Roy Chubby Brown turns headlines into punch lines with his trademark insult humour on May 14 – if you are easily offended, stay away! (Age 18+)
