The Best in Comedy comes to the Big Top Theatre, Ipswich with an All Star Christmas Special!

Not one, but FOUR headline comedians in one show. The hilarious Gary Delaney, Rachel Parris, Paul Sinha & Matt Richardson.

Gary Delaney is widely regarded as being the most quotable one-liner comic in the country. As well as being a double Sony Award Winner, he is the only comic ever to have got two gags in the same top 10 for Dave’s Funniest Jokes from the Edinburgh Fringe.

His recent TV appearances include Live at the Apollo, Richard Osman’s House of Games & Mock The Week .

Rachel Parris is a BAFTA Nominated comedian, musician, actor and improviser, best known as the host of Dave's Late Night Mash.

She has appeared on Live at The Apollo and Mock the Week, and Cats Does Countdown, as well as many other comedy and entertainment shows, including QI, Would I Lie To You, Comedians Giving Lectures and Hypothetical.

Paul Sinha was born in the UK to Bengali parents and the family medical dynasty. Whilst studying medicine in the 1990s, Paul took his first steps on the stand-up comedy circuit and is now one of the UK’s best loved comedians. Paul is a familiar face on television as a guest on BBC's QI and Would I Lie to You? and as a competitor on Dave’s Taskmaster.

Thanks to his passion for quizzing, he also appears as a general knowledge expert on the much-loved ITV quiz show, The Chase.

Your compere for the evening is recent star of ITV’s Dancing on Ice, Matt Richardson. Matt is a multi-award winning stand-up comedian, as well as being named Heat Magazine’s Weird Crush of the Year in 2014…

Matt is the former host of the Xtra Factor and has appeared on shows such as Nevermind The Buzzcocks, Celebrity Juice and Pointless Celebrities.

Strictly over 18s only.
