More than 30 years ago, Ben Elton exploded into the national consciousness hosting Channel 4’s ground breaking Saturday Live.

Now, the godfather of modern stand-up returns to the medium he did so much to define.

Back on the road with an all new stand-up show, Ben promises to try and make sense of a world which appears to have gone stark raving mad.

The 53-date tour will stop off at the Engine Shed on November 23.
