A comedian will return to perform in Kent on his upcoming stand-up tour.

Ross Noble will visit Tunbridge Wells next November as part of his 53-date Jibber Jabber Jamboree UK tour, in what marks his 21st solo stand-up tour.

Presale tickets will be available tomorrow before general sale begins on Thursday.

The tour, which has been described as "weepingly funny" by critics will kick off on October 25, 2023 before landing in Tunbridge Wells' Assembly Hall Theatre on Friday, November 3.

The 46-year-old comedian began performing stand-up at the age of 15 and made his theatre debut in The Producers in 2015.

His 2017 performance as Igor in Mel Brooks' West End revival of Young Frankenstein at London's Garrick Theatre won him the What's On Stage Award for 'Best Supporting Actor in a Musical' and gained him an Olivier Award nomination.

Audiences have also likely seen his face on BBC One's Have I Got News For You, in which he has made 22 appearances, more than any other guest.

The comic, who was born in Newcastle and brought up in Cramlington, Northumberland, has also featured on BBC's Live At The Apollo and QI, as well as BBC Radio 4's Just a Minute, I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue and The Infinite Monkey Cage.

He also has a YouTube channel featuring The Unnatural History Show with Ross Noble, a series of original comedy shorts written by and starring Noble himself.

On what audiences can expect from his new tour, the comedian said: “It will be a playful experience for young and old. Imagine watching someone create a magic carpet on an enchanted loom. Oh, hang on… magic carpets fly, that would smash the loom as it took flight.

"I haven’t thought that through. That’s what people can expect. Razor sharp observations on things I haven’t thought through.”

Noble has previously won the Time Out Award for Best Live Stand-Up, and a Barry Award in Australia.

Time Out described the comedian as "the supreme master of spontaneous stand-up and true king of surreal flights of fantasy", while the Daily Telegraph has pegged him "one of comedy's greatest marvels".
