The fantastic Billy Pearce. Come join us on the 3rd May as we welcome him back to our stage. Billy is a national treasure, and without doubt one of Britain’s most talented and best-loved comedians

Due to the ongoing situation with COVID-19, this event will be cancelled until further notice.

 

Pinnacle is a brand-new show of brutally honest, opinionated, no holds barred stand-up from DAVE’s ‘Best Joke Of The Edinburgh Fringe’ winner and ‘English Comedian Of The Year Finalist’, Adam Rowe.

His online stand-up clips have amassed over 50 million views, he’s appeared on various TV shows and was hand-picked as tour support for Jason Manford as well as huge American stars Andrew Schulz and Bill Burr.

At 27 years of age, Adam is supposed to be in the prime of his life, which is a truly terrifying thought. Is this really as good as it’s going to get? It’s all downhill from here? Not if he’s got anything to do with it.

*Please note this event is a mixture of seated and standing (near the bar), if you require a seat – please contact us on info@hullboxoffice.com before the event.

This is rescheduled show. Original tickets remain valid.

It’s been a busy few years for Jason since his last smash-hit stand up show but fans of his Absolute Radio show will know this nationally acclaimed comedian hasn’t changed a bit. ‘Like Me’ is Jason’s latest comic offering set to hit road, and is sure to be ‘expert observational comedy’ (The Guardian) mixed with ‘comic gold’ (Mail on Sunday).

Jason said: “After the fun we had on my last tour ‘Muddle Class’, I’m excited to get back on the road with my new stand up show, ‘Like Me’. In these trying times it’s always important to be able to get away for a couple of hours and exercise the old chuckle muscle! So I’m coming to a venue near you in 2021 so we can have a good laugh together. See you then.”

‘First & Last’ (BBC One), ‘The Masked Singer’ (ITV1), ‘What Would Your Kid Do?’ (ITV1), ‘Olivier Awards’ (ITV1), ‘Scarborough’ (BBC One), ‘8 out of 10 Cats’ (Channel 4), ‘The Nightly Show’ (ITV1), ‘Sunday Night at the Palladium’ (ITV1), ‘Live at the Apollo’ (BBC One), ‘Have I Got News For You’, (BBC One), QI (BBC Two) and ‘The Royal Variety Performance’ (ITV1) have all helped establish Jason as a nationally known comic

Following her hugely successful debut UK tour of Butterfly Effect and an acclaimed season at The Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2019, Award-winning Comedian Juliette Burton will be setting out on tour in 2020 with her ground-breaking new show, Defined.

Juliette is full of contradictions: pessimistic optimist, introverted extrovert. Her life has felt like a series of “either/or” binary choices. – Success or failure? Masculine or feminine? Happy or sad? – Why does she have to choose one thing or the other?

After a year of huge change, she’s been forced to redefine herself and her life. Everything she thought was steadfast has vanished. Can she be everything at once? Or must we choose how we are defined?

How would you define yourself?

Juliette Burton is an award-winning performer, writer, presenter and broadcast journalist.

She has previously performed five critically acclaimed total sell-out solo seasons (When I Grow Up, Look At Me, Decision Time, Butterfly Effect and Defined) at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Her shows have been seen by audiences around the world and she has performed at some of the best-known Festivals including Leicester Comedy Festival, Adelaide Fringe, Melbourne International Comedy Festival and New Zealand International Comedy Festival. In 2015 Juliette won the Argus Angel Award at Brighton Fringe for Look At Me.

Juliette’s TV and radio credits include The One Show (BBC1), This Morning (ITV), Skin Deep and Feeling Kind of Funny (both BBC Scotland), BBC At Edinburgh Festivals (BBC iPlayer), BBC Tomorrow’s World and Afternoon Edition (BBC Radio 5 Live). She also played the lead role in SuperMum, directed by Lisa Gifford, which premiered at the 2015 Raindance Film Festival. She was also listed by The Telegraph in 2019 as one of the top 10 audiobook narrators alongside Stephen Fry, Emma Thompson and Steve Coogan.

As a writer, Juliette has contributed to The Independent, i Newspaper, Cosmopolitan and BBC News. She is an ambassador for mental health charity ReThink Mental Illness, and supporter of Mind and B-eat, and was a guest on Dave’s Comedians Against Living Miserably podcast.

This will be Juliette’s second UK Tour after successfully reaching out to audiences across the UK on her debut tour with her hit show, Butterfly Effect which was supported by Arts Council England. Her podcast Juliette Burton’s Positive Mental Attitude is available on iTunes and Defined was filmed and broadcast by Next Up Comedy in 2019.

A Comedy Magic show for children aged 4 to 10 and great fun for parents too, featuring magic tricks from around the world!

This is a rescheduled show. Original tickets remain valid.

The distinctive laugh, politically incorrect gags and sharp suits of legendary comedian Jimmy Carr are heading to Hull City Hall later this year.

This new show contains jokes about all kinds of terrible things, including those that might have directly affected audiences and their loved ones. But remember they’re just jokes and as Jimmy says: “Having political correctness at a comedy show is like having health and safety at a rodeo.”

The comic known for his deadpan delivery and near the knuckle humour has a whole host of television credits including 18 series as presenter of panel show 8 Out Of 10 Cats and for more than years 10 years Channel 4’s Big Fat Quiz Of The Year.

However, nothing compares to the live experience, which has seen him consistently sell-out shows at national and international venues.

Michael is continuing his Big World Tour this Spring and is warming up with a show at the Bonus Arena.

Tickets on sale February 3rd, 10am

Strictly 14+ only, likely to be swearing and adult content.

(Please note that this show contains material from his 2018 Big World Tour show)
