Having reassessed her life through the prism of an ADHD diagnosis in last year’s funny and moving memoir, one of Britain’s most beloved and most scatterbrained stand-ups lets you back into her mind (warning: it’s cluttered in there).
Among other things, this show will be a love-letter to letter-writing, a trip back through her early years as a comic and woman-about-town, and a whirlwind tour of a chaotic, hilarious brain.
Following the huge success of Ben Elton’s critically acclaimed sold-out UK tour in 2019, which marked his return to live comedy after a fifteen year hiatus, the undisputed godfather of modern stand-up is going back on the road with his new show – Authentic Stupidity.
Ben says ’Since my last live tour a whole new existential threat has emerged to threaten humanity! Apparently Artificial Intelligence is going to destroy us all! Well I reckon our real problem isn’t Artificial Intelligence it’s good old fashioned Authentic Stupidity! Forget AI! It’s AS we need to be worrying about!’
Ben Elton first exploded into the national consciousness back in the 1980’s hosting Channel 4’s ground breaking Saturday Live and he’s been setting the standard for gag filled, taboo busting, tonsil rattling, mind expanding stand-up comedy ever since!

When life gives Rhod lemons…
In his last show ‘The Book of John’, Rhod Gilbert was dealing with some pretty pungent life citrus, and an idiot called John. Little did he know that things were about to turn even more sour…
But Rhod’s not bitter; he’s bouncing back and feeling remarkably zesty. Hilariously dark, passionate and way too personal, this is classic Gilbert, squeezing every last drop out of life’s latest curveballs…with a little help from an old adversary.
Following the sell-out 2022 tour of Next Slide Please, the comedian, broadcaster, writer and campaigner returns to theatres with an evening to celebrate the publication of her new novel.

Each ticket includes a hardback copy of Sandi Toksvig’s brand-new novel, Friends of Dorothy. (RRP £22.00)
Flame-haired star of Mock The Week, Alasdair Beckett-King will perform The Hot Water Comedy Cub on Saturday 20th April 2024.
Alasdair is a familiar face on television screens and was a Mock the Week favourite for the final two seasons. He’s an award-winning comedian, and last year, won Chortle’s Breakthrough Act of the Year Award.
But he’s perhaps even better known for his online sketches and distinctive animated shorts, many of which have gone mega-viral on YouTube, reaching millions of viewers, you can watch a classic here
With several viral internet hits, appearances on Mock The Week a debut performance on Comedy Central Live and an upcoming debut on 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown later this year, two sensational children’s books and a sell-out UK tour last year under his (vegan leather) belt, Alasdair Becket King is thrilled to be bringing his total sell-out Edinburgh Fringe show “Nevermore” to Hot Water Comedy Club on Saturday 20th April 2024.
Sea levels have been rising Alasdair’s whole life. But for the first 16 years he was getting taller, so he didn’t notice. Now 6″2, Alasdair Beckett-King is the only comedian brave enough to speak out against that wet b*stard: The North Sea.
Nevermore is more than an anti-sea diatribe. As a 500-year-old man ABK is uniquely poised to draw parallels between the history of the ever- shrinking British Isles, and his own childhood in the swinging 1990s. The multi award- winning stand-up comedian unravels some of life’s shallowest mysteries:
What are train guards actually guarding?
Why wasn’t Jaws set in County Durham?
Does his hair do that on its own?
Out of the swirling maelstrom he steps, his sword of jokes, his shield of mischief and his armour made of a third amusing thing. The show that many people are calling “Nevermore“ is an island in a sea of existential terror and entirely justified fears. It is silly, faintly mystical and does not (at the time of going to press) feature any ravens. It is also a real show with jokes and everything.
Alasdair Beckett-King won the Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year in 2017 and garnered a very enthusiastic critical response plus Amused Moose Comedy Award nomination with his debut Edinburgh show of the same year. Alongside his TV appearances and YouTube fame, he has featured on BBC radio as a comedian and sketch writer and performed stand-up across the UK, at Glastonbury, Citadel Fest, the Udderbelly Southbank and the Fringe. He once won a student RTS award and was nominated for a Student Oscar, but quit filmmaking for stand-up on realising it was a cheaper medium to be unsuccessful in.
