Simon Brodkin: Unleashed
He’s the comedian who showered FIFA president Sepp Blatter with cash, handed Prime Minister Theresa May her P45, and created the smash-hit BBC comedy series Lee Nelson’s Well Good Show.
Simon is now one of the most exciting stand-up comedians in the world to see live. His last tour, Screwed Up, was a phenomenal success. Extended three times, it ran for 170 dates around the world, culminating in three sold-out nights at London’s Hammersmith Apollo.
Unleashed is Simon’s hysterical new show. Packed with outrageous punchlines and electric crowd work, Simon rips into wild swimmers, vape shops, Greta Thunberg, religion and his wife’s friends Claire and Carl.
Join Simon for a wildly funny night on his biggest ever tour.
‘A masterclass of stand-up at its very best’
