Upcoming Shows
JACK DEE – Small World
Sunday 2nd February 2025, 7:30pm
CULTURE WARS, THE ENVIRONMENT, BRITISH FOREIGN POLICY and SOCIAL JUSTICE: these are just a few of the topics that Jack spectacularly fails to address (or even mention for that matter) in his brand new show. Instead, for reasons known only to him, he doubles down on his fascination with the meaningless small things of life like Zoom protocol, what’s new in the world of radiators and the worst careers advice office in the world.
Join Jack as he guides you through his varied life and career with his customary charm and well known gift for talking absolute rubbish on any given subject.
Let's Have A PARTY!
Tuesdays & Wednesdays 8.15pm from 18th February - 15th October incl. Matinee: Wednesday 13th August 2.30pm
